I believe that the first Gedan Berai in this kata is a double handed wrist release. One's opponent is standing in front of you, and has grabbed both of your wrists to control, and subdue you. ( His right hand holding your left wrist, and his left hand holding your right wrist.) Stepping forwards slightly with your left foot to crowd him back, you only need to do the "SET" position of Gedan Berai with speed, and focus to release both of your wrists. After this movement, your left hand is free to send a tettsui to the groin/ or inner thigh, and your right hand can easilly grab him, and pull him into unbalance.
