This study was to analyze the kinematic variables when the subjects performing Uchi-mata(inner thigh reaping throw) by Kumi-kata types((How to grasp A or B?) and two different opponent's height in Judo. Kinematic variables were temporal, posture. Data analysis was collective comparison of two-way ANOVA, t-test by type A&B and two different opponent's height. There were significant difference of Kumi-kata types(p<.05) in the time elapsed on Kake phase(KP : throwing phase) and hip, knee, ankle-angle of the attacking foot in the 1st stage of KP and knee, ankle-angle of the attacking foot and hip, knee ankle-angle of the supporting foot in the 2nd stage of KP. There were significant difference of two opponent's(p<.05) in the time elapsed on KP and hip-angle of the supporting foot in 1st stage of KP. Therefore, the interaction effect(p<.05) were in the time elapsed on KP and hip-angle of the supporting foot in the 2nd stage of KP. So, It could be suggested that Judoka hold on the part-behind neck lapel(type A) at the sleeve with the other of Judogi jacked when opponent's height was short. Because the time elapsed on KP of type B was not so fast as type A(p<.05) during performed Uchi-mata, and also the bigger hip-angle of the supporting foot in the 2nd stage of KP grew, the faster the time elapsed on KP became.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of ankle joint taping treatment on lower extremity joint and center of pressure(COP) factors during the Uchi-mata. Twenty college judo athletes (age, 20.9 ± 0.8 years; height, 168.6 ± 7.4cm; weight, 73.5 ± 11.6kg; body mass index, 25.7 ± 2.6kg/㎡) participated, and two types before and after ankle joint taping treatment when the during the Uchi-mata was exhibited under conditions, the angle and COP factors of the support leg joints were analyzed to show the following results. At the time of E2 (t = 2.411, p = .027) E4 (t = 2.388, p = .029), the ankle joint angle was statistically less after the treatment than before the taping treatment, and E2 (t = -2.343, p = .032) At E3 (t = -4.531, p = .000), the angle of the hip joint was statistically large. And after the ankle joint taping treatment, the medial/lateral COP movement after the ankle joint taping treatment was statistically large in the P3 phase of throwing the opponent (t = 2.670, p = .016), and the anterior/posterior COP movement showed a statistically small number in the P1 phase where the opponent was tilted (t = 2.846, p = .011). Therefore, it was suggested that judo athletes who use thighs as a special technique should be used considering the movement function of the support joint and the range of movement of the COP caused by tapping of the ankle joint.
