instagram.comHis head should go towards the far leg. If you want a textbook inside trip watch Henry Cejudo do it to Demetrious Johnson.
edit: I just went through your whole instagram and you perform almost every technique poorly... I'm not trying to be an asshole just pointing out there are major flaws in your judo, bjj and wrestling.
edit 2: Here's Olympic Gold medalist Kendall Cross showing it properly notice his head position

Seeing what you wrote, I also looked through the instagram videos. I don't see anything great but I don't see anything terrible either. They just look like videos of people trying to learn. Learning is good. Sharing about learning is also good. We can learn from good examples and we can also learn from bad examples.
In my experience, usually nothing good comes after "I'm not trying to be an asshole..."

More than one way to skin a cat buddy.

Agreed. It is a common misconception that the head being on that side is the only way to drive the weight correctly that way. You can still drive and load up their foot with the head on the "wrong" side or directly in front.

I don't see how you are skinning cats with a butter knife

Come help sharpen the butter knife if you're ever in Central Wisconsin.

There's nothing wrong with his head position in this video. There's many variations of the inside trip with different counter sequences

Interesting. Seeing you kicked off the discussion about head position, would you like to explain why you feel his head should be on the far side?
For ouchi, there are at least 3 positions I can think of for the tori's head that are all correct (to entangling side, opposite entangling side, directly in the centre but sliding down) so long as they achieve the goal of kuzushi.
The goal of the head is to provide extra weight to the throw direction - and the most common throw directions (from a right ouchi) are to tori's left, right or straight down in the hole. I think the only "wrong way" to do it is to not add weight to uke / not bend them in the direction of the throw.

The direction of you head is the same direction as your force vector on ouchi. To go into more detail why this is wrong:
- He doesn't drive his knee to the mat or do any sort of hopping motion to finish the take down ( His finish would not work on anyone competent)
- The grip he has is not a deep seat belt grip which does not provide enough grip for tori to finish the throw properly ( The two ways to hit ouchi would be an over under or deep seat belt grip around the waist)
- He assumes Uke would not recover guard after getting tripped. (Usually when a trip is executed you end up in full or half guard)
- Of course his head position is off and there is no way to finish this especially in no gi with your head facing away

Yes - head on side of force vector is very important for ouchi. The worst is doing a "driving" ouchi but having your head on the wrong side - hello ura nage.

Cejudo trips on the overhook side; it's a slightly different mechanic. Same with the Kendal Cross video.
But tripping on the underhook side is just as viable, the trajectory you take is just slightly different.
I like tripping on the underhook side because it makes the follow up knee tap more powerful

That was nice! The camera zoomed around just as you were getting the leg control - making it difficult to see the "knee torque".
Hard to see but I'm cradling his ankle inward to while using my hip to anchor his thigh, twisting his knee.
Not a submission by any means, more of an inward turk to promote positional compliance.
If you have some videos, I'd love to see how you shoot them to get the angles right.
