Magical Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi by Muneta Yasuyuki

[ibra2411]

Sorry but I see a hiza guruma, the wheel move is not side to side but up and down.

@ibra2411 I'm going to guess the commentator has more experience in calling competition throws than you--and he says tsurikomi ashi at about 4 seconds

[JustGuess500]

@ibra2411 There isn't any guruma action here. Muneta blocks the leg while doing a tsurikomi action, making it sasae-tsurikomi-ashi.

Uke got some serious air there!

[MsFistule]

ça c'est du beau lourd !!!! et ça impose le respect !

Beautiful sasae. This is not hiza guruma, despite Muneta's placement of his foot just below the knee. This throw is all about the "lifting" and propping"; there is no "wheel" component.

I just started Judo, and shorter people have an extremely low center of gravity = advantage?

[sylverdrag]

@tsab503 Every body size has it's advantages. If you are tall, you can do long range uchi matas that a short person couldn't dream of, for instance.

Awesome!! :)

Very confusing to me. Looks like Harai tsurikomi ashi, but the sweep was closer to the knee. There was lifting and some sweeping but more knee than ankle. Could be Sasae tsurikomi ashi because the propped before the slight sweep, but still closer to ankle. Also could be Hiza guruma. Because it was closer to the knee, and doesnt matter if it propped or swept. Uke turned over to back. I am leaning toward Harai tsurikomi ash though.

barai, not ashi

[ultimatehammer]

I love that "ain't no thang" face at the end

COOL!

[MrBINDEL]

Magnifique technique et magnifique respect du combattant. Notez ses saluts impeccables. Ca nous change des gens qui sautent en l'air en hurlant après avoir marqué un point.

[MrBINDEL]

Yes Hiza Guruma.

[noose357]

Hiza Guruma. Sasae is the lifting propping ankle throw.

Tori's foot blocked uke's knee, wheeling him over i.e. Knee wheel.

Absolutely beautiful technique. Perfect, circular Judo.

[sonomama82]

そんなに大きい人ができるのは本当にすごいです。

[JiuDoRick]

Looks closer to a hiza garuma

I've hit sasae live once in like 6 years, but when i got it I flew that dude like a kite

[agalvan91]

@JiuDoRick  No, even the narrator says "Sasae Tsurikomi ashi".

[JiuDoRick]

@agalvan91 the foot is beside the knee
