BJJ Half-Guard Pin Escape Using the Pinch Headlock: with top pressure from a heavier partner, the bottom of half-guard can be a crushing place to be. As with many pins in jiu-jitsu, your small adjustments through off-balancing can lead the way to space for movement and chances to attack.
In Part 3, we look at what happens when you're able to score the underhook following some off-balancing, but your partner continues to pressure forward keeping their head low. In cases like these, it makes sense to look to a combination of upper-body control and lower-body kazushi - this time in the form of the sumi gaeshi sweep. We gain control through the use of the "pinch headlock", a specialized grip related to the shoulder crunch.
