Leg Staple Control
Description
- Start in a smash pass position with opponent on their back
- Step over opponent's knee with your inside leg
- Apply weight to pin opponent's leg to the ground
- Reinforce the staple with your other leg if needed
Key Point: This position prevents the opponent from using their legs effectively for escapes or explosions. Can be used to set up arm triangles and other submissions.
