Setup & key ideas

Before you start

  • Spider guard with both sleeves controlled and a foot maintaining the biceps connection.

Key ideas

  • Place the other foot on the hip while drawing that arm inside your leg.
  • Use the hip and biceps contacts to raise your hips before moving the biceps-side leg over the shoulder.
  • Establish the triangle trap first; finishing adjustments are a separate step.
