- 8: use Clip 1 and 2: Warm up w/ top man going side to side trying to slide in foot first leg and bottom man block w/ knees. Let this continue about 30 sec; blow the whistle and go to a foot instep block and clear. Combine clip 1 and 2.
- 9. Allow leg in and mule kick defense: Clip 3
- 10: Switching the leg Clip 4.
- 11. knee drop out of power half: Clip 5. It is good to drill this solo as well. We combine this w/ the swim/ tripod but add in the knee drop to tilt hips and slide out.
- 12. Clip six: granby out. We do a variation called free leg. Same motion but more force and the kick and hip heist is done when rolling across shoulders. Usually good for 5 points.
