Drexel Judo Class Excerpt (Feb 2, 2009) - Ashi-waza

Will demonstrates combinations that include osoto gari, ouchi gari, kouchi gari, osoto otoshi after having graciously given away his Gi top to one of the new-comers to the club.

Also, his uke, Nishi, forgot his belt. So, if Nishi and Will were to combine their outfits they would have one complete judo uniform. (Ba dum tsch).

actually the uke isn't new he was the second highest belt in class that day. he forgot his belt and was slightly hungover which made every throw that much better of a demonstration you can see me laughing a few times

[KrazyAD]

I don't think he was a newbie I if you look he did not have a belt on and he did do a breakfall

[mojorising80]

I have to disagree. I think it looks worse than it is. To me it looks like he pulled back just as he hit and his head never even touched the mat. Of course this is common when practicing throws. I've been thrown many of times and it looked/sounded real bad and didn't hurt at all.

mr. sensei, you should never demonstrate techniques on newcomers! they can get seriously injured because they dont know how to breakfall. in my opinion, its proper to use a senior belt as your partner instead of a newcomer.

secondly, there is no need to throw the newcomer with force! you gotta be gentle...as the throws are dangerous.
