Sacrifice
The following are some clips of sacrifice techniques. Somewhere in my first to second year I learned how to attain a 'sleeve back' grip, something like a variation on the Russian two on one, where rather than controlling the shoulder with the inside arm, the back is gripped, often near the belt, lat or collar. I saw some of the black belts that I admired doing 'Sumi Gaeshi' from this grip, and it looked terribly cool. Soon it became the only successful throw I really ever completed on the other judoka that were as good or better than me. Well, today I have tried to expand upon that theme, by learning a variety of grips and minor variations to the same theme.
The Standard Technique
The fifth variation is the aforementioned 'sleeve back' grip approach
Excellent Variations
(as demonstrated by Aronov from www.spartakjudo.org)
I don't often attempt this from the russian belt grip, as I am often concerned I will be driving my opponent's head into the mat.
Competition Footage
Well... That's it for now. This is Jason's Tokui Waza, so there's only so much I really want to divulge. I don't want everyone to know all my secrets!
