This is a full length match where I get a koka, yuko, and wazari, do not get a shido, and don't throw myself. My ankle is heavily taped from the previous year.
@tomterahedrob It isn't painful at all. You learn to fall properly. There are no strikes, and you usually tap out of an armbar pretty quick before it hurts too bad. Aside from that there isn't anything else that could hurt you. In tearms of it being mean, it really isn't. Just like in all contact sports - hockey, football, rugby, other martial arts, the participants agree to the contact going in. What attracted me is the discipline and the fact that unlike other martial arts Judo is regulated.
Nice tying her up on the ground! She was all about workin you hard down there...but you gave he NO CHANCE! Bravo Stace! Who is the girl you are fighting? Have you 2 fought before?
thanks

Taped ankle was apparently not much of an impediment. Looked like a decisive win.
