Outside leg drag
Also known as Outside Ashi — Standing Context — the canonical term used on this site.
Training background: Emphasises the transitional drag mechanic rather than the position itself.
Standing outside leg-drag-to-ashi configuration
Outside leg drag is the configuration name for an outside-ashi-standing variant entered via a leg-drag motion — combining the standing leg-drag entry with the outside-line ashi entanglement.
Etymology. “Outside” specifies the hip-line position; “leg drag” specifies the entry mechanism. The compound predominates in instructional contexts that emphasise the leg-drag-to-outside-ashi entry chain.
Mechanics. The leg-drag entry brings the attacker into the outside-line position — the drag commits the controlled leg outside the opponent’s defensive structure while the standing ashi closes the trap.
Cross-reference. “Standing outside ashi” is the canonical configuration name. Full mechanical coverage on Outside Ashi Standing.
