Tod used a Georgian grip and executed a perfect kouchi gari for Ippon!


The type of kouchi gari by Tod is rarely seen. He reaps Uke's leg between his legs rather than to the outside. I've only seen high level world competitors use this type of kouchi gari. But I know Tod did this on purpose because when I taught him kouchi gari, this was his favorite way to do it.

Ippon!


Good grip control and use of body weight. These are the keys to a powerful osoto gari.

Congrats to all of competitors who fought hard. Jimmy Correal won gold and Fernando Kowalski took silver. Dominic Patino and Alexei Ionescu both fought in tough divisions and did well.


Former students Urnuuke Myagmarsuren took gold and Tod took bronze.
