Re: Please help with technique name!!

I think there may be a subtle difference between Aiki-Nage and Sudori (and believe me I am no expert on this). Here's my interpretation..

Aiki-Nage: Nage throws uke using only his body (no hands). Kinda like a koshi-nage but with no hands.
Sudori: Uke literally falls over nage due to his own excess energy.

The naming sort of makes sense. Sudori may come from the japanese term meaning "passing through without stopping"
Aiki-Nage indicates nage has exerted a throw of some sort.

Perhaps also Sudori is just a variation of Aiki-Nage where actual contact is missing.
