The Sasae into the Kouchi requires a quick bit of footwork as you are attacking with the same leg twice. He does a sort of ‘hop step’, first placing his right foot down then immediately switching back to his left.

He does it all from the left collar and sleeve grip that he uses for both Kouchi and his Kouchi/De Ashi combination.

With their weight transferred onto their right, Suzuki is free to attack their left leg.
