Slip Out The Back Door

Getting pinned on the bottom of the cross side is probably one of the most difficult positions in all of Jiu-Jitsu to escape,

especially when we allow our opponent to establish head and arm control. 

The back door escape is a crucial escape to learn to be able to easily get out,

especially if your opponent is using shoulder pressure to turn your face. 

The key detail here is how I swing my legs and use my elbow to create a ramp to get their body off me so I can slip out. 

When you do this escape properly it feels effortless and your opponent will have the experience of you slipping out from their hold.
