RISING ABOVE THE REST
CHIN TAP
CHIN TAP
THEORY
JUST UNDER THE CHIN IS A QUIET TENDER AND SUSCEPTIBLE AREA SO WHEN MAKING CONTACT WITH THIS AREA WHEN THE OPPONENT IS NOT EXPECTING IT WOULD CAUSE A REACTION AND OR BLINK THAT GIVES ONE THE ABILITY TO ATTEMPT A TAKEDOWN.
STEPS
0. THE LEAD HAND IS USED FOR THIS SET UP DUE TO THE ABILITY TO BLOCK THE OPPONENT AT THE PRIMARY CONTROL POINT (PCP) OF THE NECK.
1. A SWIFT CONTACT UNDER THE CHIN WITH THE BACK SIDE OF FINGERS WITH ENOUGH SPEED AND FORCE TO STARTLE THE OPPONENT BUT NOT EXCESSIVE AS TO CREATE A PENALTY CALL .
2. ATTEMPT TAKE DOWN WHILE OPPONENT IS OUT OF POSITION (THIS IS DURING THE BLINK AND FLINCH).
BARRIERS
1. MOVING TO SLOW AS NOT TO STARTLE THE OPPONENT
2. TELEGRAPHING THROUGH REPETITIVE ATTEMPTS
3. FAILING TO EXECUTE DURING THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY
