Basically any technique which puts stress on any joint but the arm is banned: leglocks, wristlocks, necklocks, throws using only leg-vs-leg method (ie/ kani basami)...

A lot of the techniques which were present in Judo's original form are now no longer taught in most places, which is a real shame. I'm considering switching to a more classical Judo style, as I feel that the art has been largely forgotten and replaced with the sport.
