- "Uki comes in to take a normal right grip on your left lapel. You take a step
- forward on your left foot so that your left leg is alongside his right while
- putting your left arm *over* his. At the same time you throw your extended
- right arm right under his left armpit and get very close. To summarise - you
- are very close, your left arm is over his arm and low, the top of your right
- arm is under his armpit and high, and your left leg is alongside his right. To
- complete the throw (this oviously happens all at once) cartwheel your arms,
- left arm down and right arm up at the same time turning your body to the left
- by moving your right foot forward. This effectively picks up Uki and spins him
- backwards, you may fall on him too. Your left leg acts as a kind of pivot.

- Can anyone tell me what kind of throw it is."

- This looks like a modification of Okuri-Ashi-Harai to me.
