STANDING UP GUARD PASS: step by step in jiu-jitsu
GUARD PASSCLOSED GUARD · ON TOPIBJJF +3
Step by step
- Since he controls both of your sleeves, pull the lapels to the middle and hold at a height where your arm is neither stretched out nor cramped.
- Circle the arm of the held sleeve over the top and control his sleeve, cancelling that grip.
- Pin the controlled hand to his hip, drop the weight of the lapel hand onto his belly and stand up first with the leg on the sleeve side.
- Raise the second leg quickly and close a seat behind his hips, keeping his hips suspended.
- Switch the collar hand to the sleeve, break the grips toward the ground and recover your posture.
- Bring your hand to his knee, sway your hips until the lock opens and move your base back a little.
- Drive his knee down to the ground and keep your hook active so he cannot close the half guard.
- Wrap the head, stay over his arm and switch your base without removing the hook.
- Complete the pass and stabilize side control.
