UNDERHOOK ESCAPE: step by step in jiu-jitsu
ESCAPESIDE CONTROL · ON BOTTOM
Step by step
- Under side control: one forearm under his neck and the other framing the hip.
- Bridge to throw his weight upward and create space.
- In that space, pass your arm underneath his arm and win the underhook.
- When his weight comes back, use the underhook to push him upward.
- At the same time, drag your legs and slide your body downward until his control is gone.
- Swing your legs like a scissor pendulum and place your elbow on the floor.
- Choose the top escape: keep your head close, wrap his leg and bring your knees together.
- Use your body like in a takedown to bring him to his side.
- Land on top in seated guard and immediately begin passing.
