I agree with it too. But as Judo is situational and you never know what
situation wil occur when, you never know what technique you wil use in
advance. Ofcause you try to steer your opponent in a situation you can do
the things you are good at. but your opponent has the same strategie at
large. Only his good things and his chose of the moment differ. So as for
the effectifness of training this throw I think it depends on your personal
affection to the technique. As I recall Angel you are a referee too, and
when you are judging you sometimes see these kind of unconventional throws
mostly resulting in an opponent kaken by surprisse. and I think the value of
these Kuzure's lies just in that, no one expects them to happen and
therefore they are effective. I think that every A-class competition judoka
has several of these thechniques.
Fore me this thechnique is to heavy to use. I faile the strength in the
upperbody to bring my opponent up and around to the back unless he or she is
far beneath my wheight cattagory (-95) So I probably will never use it and
use techniques as yoko wakare or some less known te wasa or a mkikomi.
As you said the throws has to be natural for yourself. So I think this one
can be very natural for a strong person with a swifst lifting action.

Best regards
