This is why Uchi-komi and Nage-komi are so important to the judo training process. I recommend a 4-foot x 8-foot, 8″ crash pad for nage-komi training, since this allows Tori to use maximum speed and power, accelerating through the execution. When doing nage-komi without a crash pad, or well sprung floor, the tendency is to begin dialing back the speed and power mid-way through the technique.
