My classmate during randori failed a drop osoto gari right as I landed from a hop and planting my foot hard. Somehow this caused my tibia/fibula to POP!

Everybody in the dojo thought I just landed really hard until they saw how wrong my leg looked.

Anyway, I’m recovering and will be filing an insurance claim with USJA.

Update: I’m healing quickly.

    Huh, we always called it “sweeping the leg,” or “judo throw,” but I was in MMA/ kickboxing. TIL. Hope you recover well.

      I like that there’s one particular throw that gets called the “judo throw”.
