Instructions

- 2The bottom player's only goal is to escape to a neutral or guard position.
- 3The top player maintains and repositions the pin but does not hunt submissions.
- 4Reset to the starting pin after every clean escape or full pass.
What to focus on
Framing and hip movement early, before the pin fully settles.
Common mistake
Waiting passively for an opening instead of proactively framing and moving.
