    Hiza-guruma into O-soto-gari

    1. Hiza-guruma膝車 · ひざぐるま
    2. O-soto-gari大外刈 · おおそとがり

    Front then back. The knee wheel draws their balance forward; when they brace back against it, their weight settles over their heels and the major outer reap arrives on the same side with the balance-breaking already done.

    Step by step

    These steps describe the whole sequence in the standard right-handed form.

    1. Take the standard right grips and place the sole of your left foot against the outside of their right knee, turning your hands to draw them forward.
    2. Feel them brace back against the wheel, their weight settling over their heels and their chest leaving your hands.
    3. Put your left foot down close beside their right foot and turn your chest square to them again.
    4. Pull down on their right sleeve and drive your lapel hand up into their chin line so their weight pins onto their right heel.
    5. Swing your right leg past the outside of their right leg and reap the back of it sharply backwards while your shoulders drive the other way.
    6. They fall straight back; keep the sleeve to support the landing and stay upright over them.

    Receiving it

    The wheel draws you forward, and putting the brakes on by sitting your weight back is what makes the second attack work: your right heel now carries everything, and that is the leg they reap. The throw is fast and flat. Do not reach behind you for the mat with a straight arm. Keep your chin on your chest, let the held sleeve stay long, and slap the mat with your free arm as your back arrives.

    VI judo notes

    Front then back, and both directions are read through your hands: their weight leaving you is the cue to change. Your blocking foot is already at their leg, so bring it down beside their foot rather than stepping out and hunting for the reaping position. Keep your chest in contact through the change so the reap starts from a distance you already know.
