Обзор

The Tree-Top Finish completes the single leg by elevating the captured leg as high as possible — over the attacker's shoulder — so the opponent is balanced on one foot with their leg extended nearly vertical. [1] The extreme elevation makes balance impossible, and the opponent falls backward as their centre of gravity shifts behind the supporting foot. [1],[2] The tree-top requires significant upper body strength to elevate the leg overhead while maintaining control. [2] The finish is named for the visual image of the opponent's foot being lifted 'to the tree tops' while they topple backward. [2],[3]

Эффективность

The tree-top finish (also called the high-crotch lift finish) is effective because elevating the captured leg above the opponent's hip line makes it nearly impossible for them to maintain balance. [1] The technique requires the attacker to stand fully upright with the leg elevated, then use a lateral dump or forward drive to complete the takedown. [1]

Заметки по тренировке

Elevate the captured leg as high as possible — above your shoulder if you can reach it
With the leg raised nearly vertical, the opponent is balanced on one foot with no ability to generate force
Maintain upper body control with your head and free hand to prevent them from grabbing you
From the tree-top position, a gentle push or pull in any direction finishes the takedown
Keep your own base wide and low while elevating the leg — you need stability
The tree-top is the ultimate single-leg finish when you have the strength to elevate fully

Типичные ошибки

!Not elevating high enough — a half-tree-top with the leg at waist height is easy to defend
!Losing your own balance because your base is too narrow while holding the elevated leg
!Letting the opponent grab your head or body from the tree-top position for a counter
!Taking too long to finish from the top position — push them over before they adjust
!Only elevating with arm strength instead of stepping in close and using your shoulder as a shelf
!Not controlling the upper body, so the opponent can grab your leg for a counter-single

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Which hand should I use to slide down when setting up the Tree-Top Finish?

Either hand can slide down, whichever you prefer. According to Still Rolling, it doesn't matter which hand you choose to grip with—the technique works effectively either way.

How do I control my opponent's hands during the Tree-Top Finish setup?

Keep pressure on your opponent and maintain control up high to prevent them from grabbing you. Still Rolling emphasizes keeping grip control (behind the shoulder, front, or inner grip) while preventing them from establishing their own grips.

What should I do if my opponent is too strong or has long legs?

Step to the side, maintain pressure, and pull them down rather than trying to step in directly. Still Rolling notes that against stronger opponents with longer reach, the pulling motion is more effective than trying to control them standing up.
