My coach has a funny story about No. 3. He trained in Japan in the 70s and 80s. One night at the Kodokan there weren’t many people there, but there was this middle aged guy he didn’t know. My coach, young and cocky, asked him to randori. Coach was thrown with this combo within seconds, and then proceeded to be thrown at will, up and down the mat, for the rest of the time with his feet barely touching the mat. The “middle aged guy” was Okano. Coach said Okano was by far the most skilled judoka he’s ever played (including other Olympic and World champions). So my coach always teaches that combination.
Three times Okuri Ashi Barai. Ko Uchi & O Uchi can be performed as a barai technique. Technically, according to judo, Ko Uchi Gari & O Uchi Gari are not sweeps. Anyway, great techniques, perfectly demonstrated! Lovin' it!
I started to follow Travis during Covid19 days and certainly will put some of his takedowns and sweeps in my Jiu Jitsu game when I return to train. Definitely. This 1st foot sweep is a gem.
Awesome video Travis I love it! I try and use all of these in order to set up my throws! I personally have been working on using threatening with the first one you showed in order to set up a really big o soto gari from a high collar grip!
That´s really nice, the names are strange to me however. 1. Okuri Ashi Barai 2. Okuri Ashi Barai 3. Okuri Ashi Barai 4. Ko Uchi Barai 5. O Uchi Gari indeed. That´s how I would name them.
True, but that is why you practice. Break it down by moves and then put it together because when you pull it off, it’s amazing. Especially when it’s effortless. Practice, practice, practice.

Okana is a beast! One of the most underrated Goat's of Judo!

Great video, I've always struggled with foot sweeps, can't wait to work on these. Awesome content as always!👍
Thanks! I'm glad you like the content!
Good work! Thank you!
Thanks for checking out the channel!
Thank you soo much
Hey Travis I was just wondering if you prefer the Greek overhook or the Russian grip. Thanks.
I prefer the Russian grip! But I use the Greek over hook often during Randori. I try to never be in either and just win the gripping battles.
Your moves are very Japanese style indeed. Very 講道 very 東海! and explain in English! Oh. Best of the best!
Thanks Eric!
Your ko uchi looks like butter
That´s really nice, the names are strange to me however. 1. Okuri Ashi Barai 2. Okuri Ashi Barai 3. Okuri Ashi Barai 4. Ko Uchi Barai 5. O Uchi Gari indeed. That´s how I would name them.

So what are the names on the sweeps?
The real japanese names l mean.
The most difficult throw is foot sweep. That timing is difficult to find and open the attack.
It can be but like anything else with practice it can become easy.
True, but that is why you practice. Break it down by moves and then put it together because when you pull it off, it’s amazing. Especially when it’s effortless. Practice, practice, practice.
Yes Sensei
Olympic gold in judo AND a danaher black belt…that’s crazy
