Talk:Tomoe nage
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I made this article more interesting by adding detail.
Once, against my sensei's training, I attempted to use this high-risk technique in a children's judo tournament, and ended up in a hilarious situation where I was on my back with my opponent suspended helpless above me on my feet.

I know it's a bit silly to get information from a video game, but in Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory this is shown as way to throw someone who is willing, to launch them across gaps and to just throw them at people. Does anyone know if the Tomoe Nage could be a mutual technique? (Darkskul 20:50, 12 May 2007 (UTC))
[edit] Japanese script
Done. I confirmed it by jawp. Sometimes it is written as "巴投げ" for/with a pronunciation. --Nightshadow28 16:42, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- According to Kōdōkan's waza list, "巴投" (Tomoe nage) is used officially.[1] --Nightshadow28 14:42, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] High risk
The article does not stress how risky this throw is for the attacker. In judo class I never was able to complete it successfully, and it usually resulted in winding up on my back with the opponent on top of me. In most throws a failure does not have such a dire result.
