Or a different kind of floppy wrist?

His arm is floppy from the elbow-down as far as I can see.

It was a break of some kind (which is atypical for a shoulder attack) and not at the elbow from what I can tell.

Freak accident.

Oooh. I missed that, you're right...and that's certainly not typical...ugh. However, breaks at the elbow and shoulder aren't uncommon, as far as I can tell, instead of the shoulder ripping apart. The guy I referred who broke his collar bone had it break on a keylock...I wouldn't've guessed that would happen, but it did.

All this can be filed under S for "**** happens".

Note to self: If I ever run a tournament...I won't feed beginners to the lions.

That could have just as easily happened with two evenly matched opponents if one got a kimura. In fact I'd dare say it would have been worse with someone who had less experience and so less control.

As I recall when this first got posted, it was about the only tournament in the country and was an open skill level tournament.
But yeah, does suck for the beginners. Wonder if it was single elimination.

There aren't enough active competitors around these parts to have a skill based division system. There are barely enough blue belts to fill all the weightclasses in the gi tournaments, and SW is even smaller. The situation has improved vastly in the last two years though. It's not like 18 months ago when my buddy first won a gold medal in his blue belt weight class because there was no one in it, and then moved up a weight class and won the silver medal after being triangled in a minute.
