Technique description
Graphic from http://www.judoinfo.com/techdraw.htm
Whereas in Hiza Guruma, uke's leg has not (necessarily) began to step, in Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi uke is steping forward. Midway into uke's step, tori blocks while pulling uke forward. In DZR's kata of Sasae Ashi, uke does a straight over. In Judo, uke rotates to a side fall.
