About This Technique
Osoto Gaeshi (大外返), or the major outer counter, is a foot technique (ashi-waza) in Judo designed specifically as a counter-attack (kaeshi-waza) against an opponent's Osoto Gari (major outer reap). It turns the attacker's own momentum and overcommitted position against them to throw them backward onto the mat.
