Passing Concepts

Lachlan Giles gives Bernardo Faria five no-gi passing tips, starting with controlling the shins rather than the knees so the guard player cannot pummel their feet back in.

Gordon Ryan explains his no-gi passing system to Bernardo Faria: stuff the leg, step to the hip, camp past the jeopardy point and let the guard player exhaust themselves.

John Danaher's first rule of passing: never fight the legs from the centre line, control the ends of the lever and get the soles of the feet pointing away from you.

Andrew Wiltse on his buzzsaw passing style and, more usefully, how he drills passes in stages from slow mechanics to resisted reps.

Short on Danaher's J-point camping: sit at the hip line with a low head and weight into the far shoulder so the bottom player has to carry you.
