All  techniques is efficient in the right situation. Now wether that
situation will apear is a whole different story. In my opinion,
everyone should learn atlesat on throw that works in a way like Ura
Nage. If this is a good ont to choose? Well it mainly depends on what
other throws u have in your baskett. I would not advice anyone to do
any special study of this thorw in order to use it in a competition. A
good and solid O uchi gari or O soto gari is far more likely to be
used. But if u feel this throw may fill a gap and give u a good
oportunity, why not? I'm confident it works. But for me? probably not
I'll just continue trying to get my Hisa guruma to work the way I
want. =)
