    Ko-uchi-gari into Tai-otoshi

    1. Ko-uchi-gari小内刈 · こうちがり
    2. Tai-otoshi体落 · たいおとし

    When the reap is answered by a backward step, the weight that returns forward can be sent over an extended leg instead. Tai-otoshi blocks rather than lifts, so it works even when they are heavy.

    1. Take your right grips and reap their right foot inwards.

    4. Step your right foot across the front of their right foot, leg straight, knee braced.
    5. Turn your hands like a wheel to send their chest over your extended leg.
    6. They tip over the block onto their back; keep the sleeve.

    Receiving it

    Pulling the foot back from the inner reap rocks your weight forward again, and the body drop meets it there. A straight leg appears across the front of your right foot and their hands wheel your chest over it. Because it blocks rather than lifts, being heavy will not save you. Turn with the wheel instead of resisting, chin on your chest, and slap with your free left arm as your back lands; the sleeve stays held throughout.

    VI judo notes

    Their weight rocking forward again is felt in your sleeve hand, and that is the moment to turn in. Keep the sleeve pulling down and across your body through the turn so their chest follows you and your blocking leg lands against a shin you already know the position of. Tai-otoshi needs no lift, which makes it a reliable second attack when the first one has told you they are heavy and low.
