Outlier Mat Minute: Beating Frames with your Head
Beating the guard player’s frames is key to successful passing. One way to beat frames is to use your head...literally.
#dlr + #insidehip - From DLR, the guard player often turns to their inside hip using a cross frame.
#dlrpass + #insidehip + #headpummel - When they use a cross frame to turn onto their inside hip, we can pummel our head inside their frame.
#outsidecamping + #headpummel - When passing DLR, if we can force the guard player to their outside hip, we can free our leg to get into outside camping. When they frame to defend against our outside camping, we can pummel our head inside their frame to beat it.
