What is S Mount?
S mount is an advanced variation of mount position where you position one leg over your opponent's arm and one leg under their opposite shoulder. This position creates exceptional control and access to multiple submissions.
Setup from Mount
Positioning Transition
From standard mount, rotate your hips and reposition your legs to establish S mount. This transition requires good hip mobility and understanding of weight distribution.
Control Mechanics from S Mount
Arm Isolation
One of the primary advantages of S mount is arm isolation. Use your leg positioning to control their arm and prevent common escape attempts.
Pressure Application
Apply tremendous pressure through your hips and weight. The S mount position distributes your weight in a way that creates significant discomfort and limits escape options.
Submission Opportunities
From S mount, you have excellent access to armbar attacks, chokes, and other submissions. The position naturally sets up multiple finishing techniques.
