Positions/Collar Sleeve Sweeps/Collar Sleeve Tripod Sweep

Collar Sleeve Tripod Sweep

Position Details

The tripod sweep from collar sleeve guard uses three points of contact - your collar grip, your sleeve grip, and your foot on their hip - to create a tripod that sweeps them when collapsed.

Key Principles

  • Establish collar grip and sleeve grip with one foot on their hip
  • Your free foot goes to their far hip or knee
  • Extend your hip-foot while pulling the collar and sleeve
  • The tripod collapses and sweeps them over your shoulder

Concepts

  • Three Points: Collar, sleeve, and foot on hip create stable control
  • Extension Power: Your foot extends while grips pull to create the sweep
  • Hip Position: Stay on your side for better hip extension
  • Follow Through: Come up immediately as they fall
