judo query

[The Crazy88]

regarding double legs; yes its all fine, as are firemans carries, but as somebody else said, after a while of shooting for doubles and singles, judo randori gets a little boring and you actually try to start learning some judo, and it has a hell of a lot to offer. Judo competition is another matter, I keep going for the single/guard under pressure.

With regard to the kimura move; officially you cant shoulder lock but the interpretation of that is forcing the shoulder up the back "hammerlock style"; a twisting style kimura/reverse ude-garami attack is legal because it is impossible to determine where the pressure is felt.. elbow or shoulder or both and is in the judo syllabus.

That clears things up a bit - thank you
