Kote-gaeshi

(small hand twist) 5th form attack

To counter an attack to the centre of your head, turn your body to the outside, at the same time follow his hand down with your left hand until contact with his hand is made. Your body should be moving towards his back, bringing him in a circular movement. Make certain that you keep your arm straight. Now change direction, stepping back with your left foot. Put the palm of your right hand on the back of his hand. Then push his hand over with your hands thus throwing your partner.
