Sage's Skill Build: Neutral Attacks
Your drill this week: High Crotch to Finish Chain Drilling
Develop a high crotch attack as a primary neutral weapon by drilling the setup, entry, and multiple finish chains.
Pick one detail to watch before the rep starts. Run the rep without adding a second focus.
The high crotch is one of the most effective collegiate and senior-level attacks because it provides deep penetration and multiple finish options from a single entry.
From a collar tie, attacker fakes high to draw a reaction, then shoots a high crotch: penetration step to inside of the opponent's legs, head on outside hip, grip on inside thigh.
Your head drives the direction of the finish, place it intentionally
You're there when the high crotch entry and finish chain flows without a pause between the setup and the finish, continuous motion.
Partner actively defends and calls which resistance they are offering, requiring a faster read and chain selection.
