Description
In Capoeira Angola, this is a kick from an aú when one leg drops like an axe kick. Tombo de ladeira can also be done from rolê (queda de três). It works best when the opponent's head is low to the ground. According to Nestor Capoeira, tombo de ladeira is a takedown that exploits an opponent in an aerial or near-aerial attack or move by lifting a hand from beneath them. Needless to say, it is dangerous for everyone involved.
