Gripping is an essential part of any grappling sport, especially Judo and Sambo. This video presents an effective counter grip to your opponent's back or over the shoulder grip. Some effective throwing attacks using this grip are shown.
Another great video! Thanks for the constant stream of awesome clips you guys put out. As a relative beginner to judo (I've been practising about a year now), I find it so very helpful!
I was taught to no to step forward with my left foot against right handed opponents (I am right handed too) but I´ll try this today if my heavier and taller partner tries high grip...
I hope it works for you. Here's something that may be helpful to you as well as an enjoyable drill. A great way to come up with things that will work for you is by doing the "what if" drill. Basically, you and your partner look at a situation, position or problem that comes up in a match or randori. You now have a "what if" situation and it's really been helpful for us to work through a variety of things to come up with a viable and realistic solution to the "what if" situation.
