THE BACK CRUCIFIX – The Most Overlooked Pin You MUST Add to Your BJJ Game!

Much like the top crucifix, the back crucifix in BJJ is one of the most overlooked and underutilized pins—yet it offers a wide range of submission opportunities. In many cases, the back crucifix can be even more effective than traditional back control, especially when trying to control and submit larger, stronger opponents. What makes the back crucifix position unique is the ability to isolate and control both of the defender’s arms. This allows the attacker to effortlessly switch between chokes and joint locks, making it significantly harder for the defender to escape or prevent the submission.
