Gift wrap basics

Brian Glick demonstrates gift wrap control, a powerful position that opens up multiple attacking opportunities. The key to maintaining the gift wrap is keeping constant pressure by pushing your chest against the opponent's shoulder while keeping the wrap tight. This position works equally well in both gi and no-gi. Even if your partner captures your leg, it doesn't significantly affect the gift wrap control, though it may slightly limit your attacking options from there.
