Proof that I’m not at the vocab point for my chosen sport: a judo coach pointed out to me that Inoue is a) heavier and therefore b) stronger and c) this was training not competition. Of course he’d let Higashi grab his lapel; it didn’t really matter!

Final example: Kosei Inoue throwing (now) US coach Shintaro Higashi like a child. Again notice Shintaro’s right hand. Count the number of times it grabs hold of Inoue’s lapel in a useful way. m.youtube.com/watch?v=-Gt8va

1/ I’ve noticed that in every skill you become sufficiently good at, there comes a point where you begin to notice nuance in your own skill (and the skill of others) and … you begin to make up your own language to describe that nuance. Let’s call this the vocab point.
