Sutemi waza/sacrifice takedowns - videos inside



These are my favorite throws, especially the tawara gaeshi. It's good because it's something you can do even when "midget wrestling", and good against people who try to shoot on you, or keep leaning forward with their butts backwards. It's the one throw I can pull off with ease. Hikikomi gaeshi is very good due to that reason, but I feel like it's much tighter to just do the tawara gaeshi, and easy to pull it off. The only issue I have sometimes is managing to get on top again.
 
The "Gator Roll" Hikikomi Gaeshi shown in this vid is a personal favorite of mine. Works well in No-gi as a shot counter or whenever you have good control with your head on their neck/upper back.
