Morote Gari
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Morote Gari is a double leg takedown adopted later by the Kodokan into their Shinmeisho No Waza (newly accepted techniques) list. It is categorized as a hand technique, Te-waza.

[edit] Technique Description
The morote gari is not a diving rugby tackle or wrestlers shoot but a smoothly delivered reep of the opponents legs from behind the knees augmented by a shoulder thrust above the centre of gravity near the solar plexus. Care should be taken to have the chin tucked in to prevent the guillotine choke and the legs to be swept slightly to one side to avoid landing in the opponents guard should one follow into groundwork.

[edit] Soto Morote
Whereas Morote Gari is a frontal attack, The Canon Of Judo describes Soto Morote as a hanmi-irimi technique, where tori is on uke's side.
