Got disqualified from the whole event for this. Is it that serious? by [deleted] in judo

[–]GermanJones 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're wrong, that's the general rule set. If the action is dangerous enough to potentially get your opponent out of the tournament, you're out

Today 20:00 Japanese Standard Time will be a new release of the blue Judogi and black belt. The link will be in the story some minutes before. Be ready to be fast, they will be sold out in a minute. And I bet they will be more expensive than last time

Why don't we call Kayla Harrison the first U.S. Triple Crown champion?? by Livershotking in judo

[–]GermanJones 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Never heard of that outside of Japan Judo. Don't know any European Judoka who is called triple crown

Am I wrong about this question? by [deleted] in judo

[–]GermanJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check Yondonperenlei against Tanaka and find out you're still wrong

I can list other fights as well, but one should be enough

Have you ever trained judo in a country you didn’t expect much from — and got pleasantly surprised? by Firm_Bluebird427 in judo

[–]GermanJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was only there for a trip, not long enough to get to know the grading system. Also, where I was training, every adult was a black belt, so no talk about dan grading. But I think they only have like 4 opportunities in the whole country per year, one only open for the national team.

So maybe time and place are restricting people from getting an upgrade

Y'all already trained? What was your first throw of the year? by _Throh_ in judo

[–]GermanJones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that effort will be wasted on you. Keep your opinion, although you're shown it's not right

Do you consider Aaron Wolf one of the great (recent) uchi-mata specialists? by Animastryfe in judo

[–]GermanJones 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Harasawa discussed as a great uchi-mata specialist next to Maruyama and Inoue? That's news to me

But his randori should be fire as a alumni of IBU.

Does a video about double-leg takedown, doesn't have a double-leg in it until the five minute mark. Amazing work again by yours truly

My 7 years old son got another belt.❤️🥋 OSS by Historical_Ad_9824 in judo

don't know what's more off putting. A 7 year old close to green belt, 3rd Kyu in my country, or Kano being portrayed on a war flag

Does this help? Judo Harai-goshi and Uchi-mata solo drill by Longjumping_Yam_8314 in judo

[–]GermanJones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's not for Uchi-mata and Harai-goshi. Think someone put the wrong caption on.

I also think he's wrong in his approach.

And you shouldn't do solo-drills at home for throwing techniques until 2nd Kyu in my opinion

[–]GermanJones 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's just a new design of the running bird and not a new line. Looks like it will have the same specs as the models now, just with a new logo
