  • Having your palms facing down is stronger than them facing up and gripping

some tips

  • Dont accept the grips
  • post underneath the hand with a stiff arm

Keep your head down

elbows in

hips back

Bonus tip

to finish a single leg with a body lock, always step on the inside to avoid a whizzer and Uchida mata

if you get a collar tie, snap the feck out of it

Always make contact with your back / far hand:

use thumb blocks:
