Those are all cool. I'm gonna put some real work into all of them. There are one or two things that work for me at the moment but the problem is that my training partners get wise to them, hence I end up using my size and strength instead.

My favourite is this. I take a normal lapel and elbow hold, adopt a deep, wide base and just wait for the inevitable push/pull battle. As my opponents weight momentarily hovers over one of his knees I pull him diagonally forwards towards the same side and, at the same time, push his opposite side diagonally backwards, but still towards that same side (does that make sense?). It's a little like a circular motion. If you catch it just right he falls over like a baby, and you can take the cross body really easily.

Any more?
