Ankle Pick Attempt to Ouchi Gari (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri shows how to take the opponent down with the ouchi gari, after first attempting the ankle pick. Lucas grips the collar and the sleeve with the other hand. He steps in and turns his torso, placing his heel behind the opponent’s opposite side ankle. In this scenario, Lucas tries reaching for the ankle pick but the opponent defends by stepping back. Lucas immediately takes a step forward and traps the opponent’s opposite side leg with his own. He now pushes the opponent back and takes him down using the ouchi gari.
