The Hangmen: Using 10th Planet with the Gi

[Mike Nall]

Fixed.

I dunno. I'm a Judo black belt and have good no-gi throws...

Are you saying wrestling is better for no-gi? if so, I agree. But if you've done Judo a long time it's not a very difficult transition.

No, What I was referring to was that Gi Judo helps your Gi Judo Throws, No-Gi Judo helps your No-Gi throws.

I'm a black belt in Judo as well (4th Dan), and if your planning to use your Judo for No-gi, you have to modify how you train your Judo. Its not as simple as taking off your gi and start throwing. Its not just learning underhooks/overhooks, setups and throwing strategy change. Sport Judo (read that as Judo for Judo competition)focuses on throwing for the sake of throwing, even recklessly at times with little to no regard for position after the throw. When I teach my Judo/Sambo classes I tell my students that I view throws/takedowns as guard passes. Once their balance is broken, and I've entered for the throw my main focus is obtaining dominant position, if my throw takes me into the guard/half guard , I immediately pass, once dominant position is secured my throw is complete. So whenever we practice repetitions guard passes are always part of the throw. The focus is on the transition from throw directly to position.

1)Obtain dominate position.
2)If you happen to smash them into a dominant position with speed, power, wheezing and snot bubbles....BONUS!

Ditto

My best GI move is to completely shed my belt and GI top at the very beginning of every match. I find that i enjoy it more that way.

gi does help with your judo throws

I actually found training my Judo without the gi tightened up my trips/sweeping throw and shoulder throws a lot. It helped me commit more to the actually arm and leg rather then tugging just the gi. So I high recommend both, though it sort of limits your arsenal of throws it helps you get really really good with some effective ones..

This.

So would it be safe to assume that this thread is still active and that patch would still be legal to put on our gi? Because I would really like to rep 10P while rocking my gi in tourneys.
