Definitely changed the way I look at these. It's fascinating that they're all almost identical. 5:15 a thing of beauty.

It sure is one of the hardest. Yet so fundamental.

Arigato, such a great tip. Smooth steady motion, connect the dots. I feel like this is important not only for testing, but martially as well. Something to work on.

We didn’t do any retakes. I made some edits to remove dead time, or where the action went off screen. I’ll upload another 1/3 of the board next week.

Great tips, thank you. Soke's English has improved very much since I saw him last.

I have never seen anyone rotate the arm like that for the finish. I really like it. Arigato!

Once you have the elbow secured, could you also pivot and use the arm for a hip throw while maintainign the lock?

Sensei James showed a variation of this many years ago, but never explained it. He used to like to drop breadcrumbs and leave it to us to either figure out or not. And I never did figure this one out! So it was great to see it here.
