Sweep single

A single leg where you shoot to your knee, then circle your body to the outside of their lead leg as you grab it. The angle takes you away from their sprawl.

Key steps

  1. Change levels and shoot toward the outside of their lead leg, head up.
  2. Drop to your knee and swing your back leg around to circle outside their leg.
  3. Wrap the leg with both arms, keeping your head on the outside of their hip.
  4. Stand up with the leg high on your hip, then turn them down to the mat.

Key details

  • Circling as you shoot takes you off the line of their sprawl.
  • Keeping your head tight to their hip stops them from pushing it down and breaking your grip.
