  • Tori pushes his hip far through, so that it is almost completely beside Uke's right hip side
  • Even while falling onto his right side, Tori continues the rolling movement
  • Tori pulls Uke sideways across his lower back and throws him forward over himself

(outer wrap-around throw)

Technique description

Tori lifts and breaks uke’s balance towards the right front corner. He holds uke’s right arm with his right arm and holds it under his right armpit while pulling uke onto his back, drops down onto the left side of his body, wraps uke around, and throws him.

 

Both sides grapple in right natural posture. Tori advances with the left foot, then the right foot, while pushing uke backward, and tries to break his balance. Uke responds by stepping back with his right foot, then his left foot, and holds his ground on his left foot, then he pushes back and begins to return to a stable posture. At that moment, tori lessens the pushing action of his right hand, and pulls and draws uke’s left foot out while stepping his right foot in front of uke’s right foot. He opens his body to the left, pulls uke round towards his back, and at the moment his left foot steps onto the mat, he lifts and pulls with the right hand, pulls up with the left hand, and lifts uke straight forward and breaks his balance.

 

At the same time, he turns uke’s arm from above with the right arm and holds the elbow in his right armpit. While stepping his left foot back inside the tip of uke’s right foot, he bends forward slightly and enters his waist deep so that the back of his waist sticks out from uke’s right side. He pulls uke’s right arm and wraps uke’s body around his torso.

 

Tori turns his face to the left, twists his upper body to the left while dropping down, and wraps uke’s body over his body. He lands so that his right arm touches the mat, while throwing uke with the momentum.
