Variations

Whereas morote gari is a frontal attack, The Canon Of Judo describes soto morote as a hanmi-irimi technique, where tori is on uke's side.

gollark: Not SIMPLE MATHS! How will we survive?!
gollark: Plus - and this is the most critical benefit - the documentation would contain a section on radiation goblins.
gollark: No, kind of seriously. If they run around randomly, then radiation will still be greatest near the reactor, but spread reasonably.
gollark: What if you make radiation be carried by invisible goblins which run around instead?
gollark: No, the idea is that instead of having radiation movement be blocked by shielding, radiation emitters detect it nearby.
