Granby roll

A rolling escape from a bad turtle that brings you back to guard. The weight travels from one shoulder to the other and never onto your head.

Key steps

  1. Post on your toes and tuck one shoulder toward the mat.
  2. Turn your eyes toward your hips and let the roll pass over your upper back.
  3. Bring your legs over and around as you come out of the roll.
  4. Face them and recover guard.

Key details

  • Finish the roll facing them; stopping halfway leaves your back open.
  • Keep your chin tucked so the roll stays on your shoulders.
