As you can see from the high crotch defense demonstration, sometimes you have to deal with an opponent who will get in on a good shot. While we ideally want to be on offense constantly, eventually you are going to need to unfold a strong defensive strategy.
Vic deals with his partner’s position by beginning to address the strong head position of his partner. This will serve as an adequate starting point to defend the high crotch. Now with his partner’s head going towards the mat, Vic begins to sprawl away from the high crotch.
However, Victor’s sprawl isn’t your average everyday sprawl. Avery’s sprawl involves some rotation with his upperbody as he reaches for the belly-whizzer. This helps him circle his body away from his partner’s shot. Here is where the belly-whizzer comes in handy because the leverage it generates on your partner, combined with the direction you are circling will cause them to flatten out if they maintain their grip on your leg.
