Обзор
The Flower-Pendulum Sweep subfamily covers the closed guard sweep that uses a wide, pendulum-like swinging motion of the legs to generate the momentum needed to roll the opponent over. [1] The guard player grabs the opponent's same-side sleeve and opposite-side collar (or pants), then swings the legs in a wide arc (like a pendulum) while pulling the opponent's arm across and driving them over. [1],[2] The pendulum swing generates significantly more force than a simple hip bump or bridge, making this one of the most powerful closed guard sweeps. [2],[3]

Primary Action — Breaking the opponent's leg control to advance to a more dominant position
Joints Involved — Hips (posture and pressure), knees (opening the guard with knee-in or standing), hands (grip fighting)
Force Vector — Forward pressure (stack/smash) or backward posture (stand-up break) to open the closed guard
Passing Mechanic — Once the guard is opened, speed passing, pressure passing, or toreando passing advances the position
Позиция и вход
From bottom side control — Create frames with the forearms against the opponent's neck and hip, hip escape (shrimp) to create space, insert the knee to recover guard
From underhook escape — Swim the near arm to an underhook, bridge into the opponent and come to knees or reverse
From opponent's transition — When the opponent moves to mount or north-south, use the movement to create space and escape

✓The flower sweep (pendulum sweep) uses a large, swinging leg motion to sweep the opponent from closed guard — the pendulum leg generates enormous sweeping force (Renzo Gracie & Royler Gracie, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: Theory and Technique, 2001)
✓Execution: from closed guard, grip the sleeve and collar, open the guard, swing the non-sweeping leg wide (the pendulum), and use the pendulum momentum to sweep the opponent over the hooking leg
✓The pendulum leg swings out wide and then drives inward — this generates the rotational force that tips the opponent
✓The hooking leg controls the opponent's far leg — it blocks their base while the pendulum provides the sweep force
✓Grips: same-side collar and sleeve — the sleeve grip prevents the posting hand; the collar grip controls posture
✓The flower sweep generates more force than the scissor or hip bump — the pendulum leg is a powerful lever
✓The flower sweep is one of the most visually distinctive sweeps — the wide leg swing is its signature
✓After the sweep, follow to mount — the pendulum momentum carries you directly to the top
Типичные ошибки
!Not swinging the pendulum leg wide enough — the wider the swing, the more sweeping force is generated
!Not controlling the sleeve — the sleeve grip prevents posting, which is essential for the sweep
!Hooking the wrong leg — the hooking leg blocks the far leg to remove the base
!Attempting the flower sweep when the opponent is sitting back — they must be loaded forward or neutral
!Releasing the collar grip during the sweep — the collar grip controls posture throughout
!Not following to mount after the sweep — the pendulum carries you to mount if you follow through
!Swinging the pendulum leg without the hooking leg blocking the base — both legs must work together

Часто задаваемые вопросы
When should I use the pendulum sweep instead of the flower sweep?
Use the pendulum sweep as a counter when your opponent posts their foot, since your hand won't be in position waiting for the flower sweep setup. Fat Snake Jiu Jitsu notes that the pendulum sweep is more effective in this scenario.
What's a common mistake people make when attempting the pendulum sweep?
A frequent error is trying to sweep with your leg out extended, which leads to a scramble rather than a clean sweep. Remember that the pendulum sweep should be executed as an actual pendulum motion.
Can I use the flower sweep in tournament competition?
No—Fat Snake Jiu Jitsu explicitly states you cannot do the flower sweep in a tournament, so avoid practicing it in that context.
