Nomenclature

[edit]

Judo has become an olympic sport with emphasis on getting the ippon from a throw and the prohibition of Do-Jime (and dicouragement of the guard?). So some of what used to be Judo is now commonly seen only in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Kosen Judo sources on the net are few, in Japanese, and with not much information. My only naming source for this technique is a BJJ book, which calls it Push Sweep (and why not a Portuguese name?). I added this article as I'm going over The Essence of Judo, but the naration is in Japanese, and I don't know Japanese. I totally expect that this page may change title in the future based on pre-existing/pre-dating sources. --Pereza 00:43, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
