Pressure passing is a whole lot easier in the Gi – mostly because you can set up various grips, which give way to many passing variations. However, this is not to say that you can’t pressure pass in No Gi as well. Far from it! You just have to change your approach in a few things and you’re good to go.
Coral belt Jean Jacques Machado gives his perspective on what he considers to be one of the best Gi pressure passes: the Folding Pass.
THE FOLDING PASS – YOUR GI PRESSURE PASS OF CHOICE!
One of the most effective ways to pressure pass in Gi is by using the Folding Pass. It basically comes down to how you distribute your bodyweight and how you control the opponent’s legs; both of which are necessary so as to incapacitate them from retrieving their guard.
You need to frame then move to the side….
Your opponents won’t expect this sort of a Folding Pass setup from you, especially because of that initial „hit“ to the side of their leg! Learn more by watching Jean Jacques explain the whole setup on the video below:
