Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, O-uchi-gari, two of the greatest exponents of the technique – triple World and Olympic Champions Lucie Décosse of France and Kosei Inoue of Japan – take centre stage. Learn how both fighters were able to adapt O-uchi-gari to any type of opponent and their numerous different variations. O-uchi-gari was also a favourite of Germany’s Udo Quellmalz, who had a different technique for right and left handed opponents, whilst his compatriot Ole Bischof preferred to use O-uchi-gake. Mark Huizinga of The Netherlands and France’s Ugo Legrand reveal the hopping variations they used in order to find an opponent’s weakness, with off-the-grip O-uchi-garis coming from USA’s Kayla Harrison, Mongolia’s Tumurkhuleg Davaadorj and France’s Darcel Yandzi. There’s also a chance to see some very unorthodox variations from Davaadorj’s Mongolian team-mates Amartuvshin Dashdavaa and Tsagaanbaatar Khashbaatar. Finally, don’t miss out on how O-uchi-gari works in combination with other techniques, as Lucie Décosse completes her Ashi-waza masterclass. Throwing descriptions and tuition are accompanied by incredible photographic sequences, with the key technical moments highlighted. Many of the images are shown for the first time and come from Fighting Films’ vast photograph archive. Fighting Films has been closely working alongside the world’s greatest judoka for over 30 years.
