I enjoyed the thread and videos. Obviously with the throw you have your opponent off balance and controlled so they quite often roll right into the sub opportunity. I've been attempting to incorporate some good "flying" armbars and ankle locks, but w/o the Gi I'm finding it pretty difficult. I'm not the most agile and quick guy either. The seamless transition after the throw was impressive though. When watching alot of the BJJ vs Judo vids I've noticed that instead of locking up w/ the judokan the BJJ practitioner usually does some sort of slide or drop to get a single leg. The strength of BJJ is the importance they put on fighting from the guard. Whether the emphasis and techniques are legitmately a Helio Gracie improvisation or just taken from Judo or traditional JJ. I'm really looking forward to working out w/ Texas A&Ms Judo team when I'm home on leave next month. I've been getting back into training slowly since I got back but I'm working through some injuries sustained during the deployment. The All Army Combatives Tournament is in Nov and barring another deployment I hope to compete.

On a side note Munky:
1. What are the rules stipulating how long a fight can go on the ground in Judo?
2. How well do you feel the Judo throws transition w/o the Gi?
3. I've never seen the move on the video where essentially you get your legs around your opponents head and shoulder then pull their leg to their head. What is it called and where is the submission at?(where do you feel it I mean)
