    Just try to change those "abstract Qi" discussion into some "concrete problem solving" discussion.

    1st vid - I wouldn't chase.

    2nd vid - get in tight and hope I was faster.

    try to circle slightly faster than that of your opponent, and get as close to thier center as possible and grasp them, this way you will be moving with thier cintricular force. This to me is the best counter for a drag

    id say a re-drag or simply cutting the corner is the best counter

    actually hand fighting and keeping the elbows in are the best counters, prevention is better than cure

    Fun thing for Judo peeps. Watch the first vid with the linear drag. Next time you're in practice randori... get a loose single grip with your left hand on your opponent's lapel and walk away like that to your right. I'd say darn near 100% of the time your opponent will chase your right hand with his left - turn quickly back towards him grip with your right and do a back sacrifice like tomoe nage. It's funny as shiite but it works pretty much all the time.

    I've never tried it in competitive shiai so I don't know if it'll work there though.

    Go with the force.....circle under the arm, or over the arm, of the opponent depending upon how he positions himself. Then apply an armbar and/or throw as the opportunity presents itself.....

    ....then sing skip-to-malou.....

    (Malou is my wife's nickname, short for Marilou)

    That is......

    Don't let someone grab you. It really is that simple.
