Looks very much like a sacrafice leg sweep/hip throw to me. The ground is not a place I'm very comfy but there are times when it can come in handy.

I was confused myself which is why I asked as the hip was not close enough to make it a hip throw. Then I tried to see the leg lock/sweep, but both did not do it the same way, which led to my question.

The throw comes from the off balance and the leg/knee is there to insure that they cannot regain their balance. Your bodies downward momentum also aids in the throw. Hope that helps.

We did a variation of this one at the Hombu during one of Hatsumi Senseis classes. It is a very good throw.

So, the idea is to actually project uke a little distance from you with the throw rather than drop him right at your feet? That could come in handy if you have a stationary object to toss him into. :uhyeah:

When I say the contact with the leg/knee I see the obvious of not gaining their balance back. When the second guy did it, I did not see as much contact and the throw did not look as clean. Hence my questions.

Thank you for the clarifications.

Nice throws.

I liked the way the throws where shown in slow motion. It lets the viewer see the body to body relationship and the balance or unbalancing of the uke
