Sensei White shows his version of the Makikomi where he explains the grip position on lower arm rather than near the shoulder.  He also shows how to use your momentum to torque your opponent into the throw with force.

Sensei White also demonstrates a couple variations of the Makikomi throw against opponents who attempt a Te Guruma counter or try to stop the Maki throw by pushing their hips out.

This throw was used by Sensei White in the 1992 Olympic Games to defeat the world champion Stephane Traineau in an amazing third-round match.
