Water Dragon,
Can you give me some examples, tecnhique descriptions I can try, etc of some Shuai Chiao body lock throws?
Any kind of description would be great.
I want to be able to find some good and effective ways of dropping a guy on his head without following to the ground like a double leg would. Obviously my judo skills help me there, but I want to look at as much variety as I can get.
And by the way, you never gave me your email!
Thanks in advance,
Ryu

Most of the throws below you can see on tape one. As I state on the bottom, some are slightly modified. Seem I canât stop my Taiji from sneaking in. just remember, IââŹâ˘m a newbie so I donââŹâ˘t have a good handle on it yet butââŹÂŚ
Do an O Goshi, but change your grip so you have the back of the guys neck instead of their belt.
Do an O Soto Gaki, but step up with the right foot while your breaking the balance and post back into a Kung Fu front stance w/ your left foot.
From Ippon Seoinage, enter from the outside instead of inside his arms. Post your wedge arm across his chest. Post the same side leg across his to block the legs.
Do Tai Otoshi, but grab his left wrist with your left hand and thread your right arm under his left arm so you can grab the back of his neck with your right hand.
Go for Sukui Nage, but donââŹâ˘t lift. Instead, post your left hand on the knee and bump him to the left.
On that double leg, ram him with your head. Then, lift your head up as you snap in the legs.
These are the ones I know. A few are modifications that work for me. It should give you a feel for the flavor though. Think Greco-Roman meets Judo.
Ryu,
David Linâs tapes are the bomb. I highly recomend them. He is generally considered the best fighter Chang Tung Sheng produced - or so my teacher tells me. And everyone else when HE is in the room. (Ask me about Jeff Boltâs '92 tournament sometime).
David Lin is very modest, and would probably not want me to âbragâ on him like this. But I view him as the current technical standard for the art.

Hey GGL, youâre with David Pickens? I met him back in '92. He had me rolling with laughter with his âmystery Science Theatreâ style commentary during the demoâs. Great guy.
