One of the most effective ways to pressure pass in Gi is by using the Folding Pass, Thomas explains; even though there’re different details to the setup when in comparison to the one in the Gi, the position itself is exactly the same. It basically comes down to how you distribute your bodyweight and how you control the opponent’s legs; both of which are necessary so as to incapacitate them from retrieving their guard.
When you use the folding pass, you can transition to the knee split position.
The Knee Split position is a great one to be in (if you’re not on the receiving end). There’s a ton of things you can do from there – for example, you can Cross Collar Choke the other person!
