I have also been very fortunate to have been exposed to Sport Science at University of Bath, from where I know Dave Elmore who did this study. I started this site to share and encourage data collection and analysis in Judo. Thanks coming by and taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it. Lance Hi Rhadi,

This is the first time that I've actually seen someone do something close to what it is that I do to prepare my clients for competition. This only a part of the whole thing but this is impressive none the less. If you look at Fallon's throw selection you will see that his time in newaza is influence by his throw selection and his throw selection is influenced because of his "finishing" rate in newaza. Very good. Kudos to you for a great analysis.
