13 – Tenkai-Kotehineri (wind-up inside wrist throw)
Tenkai-Kotehineri is a Shodokan Aikido throw where Uke is brought up on his toes by a painful wrist twist, then he is pulled to the floor and rotated 180 degrees onto his face.
07 – Udegaeshi (elbow wind-up throw)
Udegaeshi is a circular wrist lock, and Tomiki Aikido students learn to apply this as a counter, when Uke resists the original throw and tries to stop you. You just go in the direction he wants and you floor him!
