Leg drag to back

A follow-up to the leg drag: when they roll away from you to escape the pin, ride the roll and take their back.

Key steps

  1. Drag their legs across your body so their knees point away from you.
  2. Pin their hips with your chest and hold their top leg in place.
  3. Watch for them turning away onto their side or belly to escape the pin.
  4. Insert your near hook between their legs as they turn away from you.
  5. Lock a seat belt and add the second hook to finish in back control.

Key details

  • Keep your hips pinned to theirs, since space lets them square up and recover guard.
  • Commit to the back the moment they turn; a pause to re-pin hands them the time to recover.
