The movement and details remain the same. The basic setup is to go in deep with the first hand palm up and wrist straight. Second hand goes under your arm also palm up and wrist straight. Once you have secured both lapels you keep your elbows in you bring him in.
Grip Tips
- Don't bend the wrists
- Elbows are always in, this helps keep the wrists straight
- Don't strain pulling. Just keep the grips and elbows tight and bring towards you
- Make sure the first grip is deep
- Once the grip is dug in, just bring in tight without straining and be patient. You should be able to hold that position for a long time comfortably
Positional details:
From the Mount.
It may be dificult to get the first palm up grip so instead go for a palm down grip where only your thumb is inside the gi and your four fingers grabbing the lapel (like punching to the mat).
Once you secure the first grip slide your same side knee towards his head so you're now about 45 deg from axis.
If you did the first punch grip then your next grip is over, grabbing the fabric just outside the lapel also in punch from. Forearm goes under the neck.
Once both grips are in place go back to the center and slowly bend over towards him keeping your elbows in.
From the Closed Guard.
The first grip goes deep palm up. Once you secure the first grip rotate sideways a bit towards the same side of the grip. This makes it easier to get your second grip in under your forearm. Second grip is also palm up. Once both are in go back to center and slowly bring him in.
