4 Part Lesson — Paul takes it to a whole new level: [I] Similar to how Paul implements a Side Guard with a Strong Underhook to cut underneath his opponent's hips and execute the Hip Shovel Sweep, the same movements can be applied in the Half Guard for the Jedi Mind Trick. However, if your opponent fails to react to the Underhook and doesn't Back Step, use your free hand to organize the situation and pull the opponent's hips onto yours as you set the JMT-Hook in the style of the Hip Shovel. [II] If you have difficulty finishing the Trick because your opponent is grabbing your head, use the Hook to elevate him and force him to post, letting go of your head. Also, if your opponent has managed to cross his Knee against your Half Guard in a Knee Slide Pass, or if you are playing Reverse DLR, use your inside elbow to organize his hips and load him onto the hook for the JMT. [III] You can apply a Knee-Drag from Seated Guard/Butterfly to pull yourself into the Quarter Guard with a Strong Underhook for the Jedi Mind Trick. If you get hung up in the position with your JMT-Hook slightly out of position, you can shoot the opponent forward, Taking his Back, by inserting Crab-Riding Hooks from behind. [IV] If he falls to the side while you are holding him up with the Crab Claw, you can reinsert the hook to go into the Rolling Back Take Series.
