Daki Age (抱上) is a throw in judo. It is one of the techniques adopted later by the Kodokan into the Shinmeisho No Waza (newly accepted techniques) list. It is categorized as a hip technique, Koshi-waza. In practice it is very similar to a body slam, the object being for tori to lift uke while in his guard subsequently forcefully dropping uke onto their back. This is a very dangerous technique that has the potential to cause spinal injuries. Generally uke will release their guard if they cannot prevent the lift.
