Guard PassFundamentalGiNo-Gi

Stack pass

A basic pass where you slide one arm under one of their legs, grip their far collar, and stack them onto their shoulders. You then walk around their legs to side control.

Key steps

  1. Open their guard and slide one arm under their thigh so the leg rests on your shoulder.
  2. Reach that hand across to grip their far collar or their far shoulder.
  3. Stand up on your toes and drive forward, stacking their hips over their shoulders.
  4. Push their free knee down with your other hand and walk around the lifted leg.
  5. Turn your hips down as you clear the leg and settle chest to chest in side control.

Key details

  • One arm in and one out is the triangle shape, so keep them stacked until the leg clears.
  • Gripping their far collar keeps the lifted leg tight and stops them pulling it back.
