Back hold

Ura Gatame (裹固) is a mat hold described in the Canon Of Judo, currently unrecognized by the Kodokan. Changes to the International Judo Federation Rules in October 2013 made it a legitimate hold (osaekomi) for competition. It can be used as a turtle turnover as demonstrated in The Essence Of Judo by Kyuzo Mifune. It is categorized as Katame-waza (grappling technique).
