2 Part Technique - Before every guard pass you need to establish a control, such as Collar and Elbow, Under Hook and Head, Over Under, or Double Under. When you stand to attempt a guard pass you must keep your opponent on the ground so he cannot stand also. Use the Collar and Elbow Control with the Knee Slide Pass to initiate a guard pass, but always finish by securing Under Hook and Control to establish Side Control. If the opponent prevents your Knee Slide Pass by locking Half Guard and controlling your leg, he may have exposed his neck for the Guillotine vs Half Guard.
