Step by step
The whole movement in words, so no part of it depends on watching a video. Described in the standard right-handed form.
Left-handed: these steps are written right-handed, as the syllabuses write them. Read every left as a right and every right as a left, and the throw is yours.
- Face your partner in a crouched, defensive posture, both of you bent forward; take a grip over their back or on the collar with your right hand, sleeve with your left.
- Step your right foot between their feet and sit down close, folding back beneath them; your partner's own forward pressure follows you down.
- As you roll onto your back, hook your right instep into the inside of their left thigh, lifting as your back meets the mat.
- Pull with both hands towards a point past your left shoulder while the instep lifts, steering them over you towards their right front corner.
- They roll over you diagonally and land on their back beyond your shoulder. Keep pulling until the roll is complete so they land rolling, not dropping.
Receiving it
From a crouched grip fight, your partner sits away beneath you and an instep lifts inside your thigh: your own forward pressure is turned into a roll. You travel diagonally over them. Keep your head tucked to one side, roll across your shoulder rather than your head, and finish the roll onto your back; the momentum wants you to keep rolling to your feet, and you can let it.

Key points

- Throw towards uke's front corner, not straight over
