After 10 years of training judo and training with excelent judokas, one guy didn't break my balance, but instead everything in my right knee with his attempt of a tiatoshi. I tried several times to get back into the sport, but the knee injuirees stuck with me my whole life and there just wasn't a chance to do the sport anymore without sever pain and risking my knee to get stiff permanently. Still loving the sport and dreaming about it.

Ironically, in bjj class, hiki comi gaeshi is one of the first throws we learn right after osoto as a white belt. Our bjj professor is also a judo black belt as well. But he also advocates the same angle method as sensei, rolling with the opponents shoulder in the chest. I’ve been thrown scores of times with this throw without injury - so far.

A failed Tani otoshi snapped my ACL 6 months into judo and ended my grappling for 8 months. At this point I've been recovering longer than I've trained thanks to one training partner not knowing how to do a throw during stegeko.

I truly love grappling, it's so painful that a moment of negligence cost me so much (thousands of dollars in medical bills and not being able to train with my friends)

I had my shoulder separated permanently by someone doing a sode tsuri komi goshi like makikomi- drove me straight to the mat with no chance of a fall. 25 years later I’ve had surgery to repair what they could but Im out of practice til it recovers. Be good to your partners judokas!

Thanks for the technique breakdowns - Great narrative and breakdowns of the mechanics as usual . As a trad jiu jitsu practitioner i think it is important to know how the old jiu jitsu (where Kano developed his original syllabus from) technique really worked to maim, disable, or kill an opponent (ie by throwing them onto their shoulder or head) so you know how not to throw your training partner in a way that is dangerous.

[cptant]

I think plain old O Soto Gari is the throw most likely to result in concussion. It's almost impossible to do proper ukemi on and if someone underestimates the throwing force the back of their head gets slammed onto the mat real easily.

In my first ten years or so of judo I loved sutemi wazas, throws like tani otoshi and uki waza really only ever worked for me if I had the timing just right.
And I always found that if my opponents mass wasn't off their center line the throw would fail, and I would end up in a sucker position for ne waza.
Awesome stuff keep the great content coming.

Yagura Nage is a beautiful technique! Great video!!

[jimbopetrella]

Wow this video was so informative and very extremely well explained down to the last finest most minor detail. It literally gave me a new perspective on grappling as an art

[bigmo]

I like the summary in the end where you show all 5 throws you mentioned throughout the video.

[Drikkerbadevand]

I was taught to get my hip behind the opponents leg and drop/sit down in the tani otoshi like you show for this exact reason, so even if the angle is bad, the risk is less severe because you're not pulling/throwing him, you're falling with him. Its a very good throw used by beginners because it's a good counter when you're fighting newbies like me

[rickfinsta]

Shintaro with all due respect (and that is a lot) that first throw was Harai Makikomi. Soto Makikomi you push both your hips through (think of an over-turned O-Goshi position) and then wrap them around you as you drop, you don't reap with the leg, and you don't drop onto Uke, you end up next to hime on the mat. I do this throw off the grip when my opponent reaches deep with their Tsurite for my lapel and they shorten the turn for me by over extending their arm. It is a very easy fall if done correctly. You also end up in an excellent position for ne waza since this technique is unlikely to score Ippon. The Kodokan has videos up demonstrating what I describe here, and my understanding comes from the original Kodokan illustrations and text.

[edwhlam]

Seen two separated shoulders from soto makakomi. One of them, I was tori, when I was a kid decades ago. Had been very careful with it ever since.

[cliffordterry]

A very important video for those who do not know these throws but are thinking to learn to add to their repertoire.

[donoconnor]

Great video and brilliant delivery with great knowledge and understanding the risk factors.
This would be certainly the dojo I would train from if not in the Uk.

[mfp]

I do number 1-4 all the time without a single injury in >25 years of judo. The two most serious injuries I have received were both from uchi mata (severe concussion with memory loss and broken elbow), both times in competition when somebody did it to me.

[semisikaufusi]

First 3 have been our “core” techniques before any tourney my sons competed…and Sotomaki, the Valleydrop, Sumikaeshi…and last time I’ve seen how devastating this when your head is crushed to the floor…and whiplash from Tani if done right…thank you Sensei for going over this important points to educate the public

[juiy]

I think Tani-otoshi is the most dangerous one on this list, seen so many injuries to the knee from this, including snapped PCLs, ACLs, spiral fractures etc. Suprised to see the Georgian Sumi-Gaeshi on there, I would have expected the Georgian Obi-Tori-Gaeshi/Khabarelli given it has a huge risk of dumping uke on their head.

[skyless]

Thank you Sensei. You are strong 💪💪! I haven't seen these techniques in competitions yet.

[thedopesickshow]

In 5 years the two major injuries I’ve seen both have come from tani otoshi. One time it was a 140 pound 5’5 70 year old brown belt (yes, 70, but actually really good) blew out a 230 pound 5’10 man’s knee.
