    1. O-soto-gake大外掛 · おおそとがけ

    Pulling hard away from an outside hook brings your partner's weight forward. Seoi-otoshi meets it: you drop under the arm and let them fall over your extended leg.

    1. Take your right grips and hook your right calf behind their right leg.
    2. Feel them pull backwards and away to escape the hook.
    3. Release the hook and spin in on the ball of your left foot, driving your right arm under their right armpit.

    5. Pull their sleeve down and across as your body drops, turning your shoulders to the left.
    6. They fall over your extended leg onto their back; keep the sleeve to control the landing.

    Receiving it

    Pulling backwards and away from an outside hook feels safe and it brings your weight forward onto them the moment the hook releases. They spin under your right arm, drop a knee and extend a leg across your legs, and you are pulled over it. There is no lift to resist, only a block. Turn with the pull rather than fighting to stay up, chin tucked, and slap with your free left arm as your back lands.

    VI judo notes

    Their pull away is felt in both hands, and it is the cue to release the hook rather than to chase it. Spin in from where you are, on the ball of your foot, keeping the sleeve so their chest follows you round. The finish drops you to a knee, so the leg finds the front of their legs by sliding along the mat rather than by being placed.
