Uke begins by attempting a front choke on tori. Tori responds by thrusting upward with the left hand between uke's hands, and wrapping uke's right arm. Tori continues wrapping motion and places his right hand on uke's right shoulder. Tori continues wrapping motion and grabs his right wrist with his left hand, in a "figure-four" configuration. Tori applies simple upward pressure of the left forearm, which should cross uke's right arm underneath, and slightly uphill from uke's elbow.
