When shooting for the high crotch, your penetration will work very similar to that of basic double leg take down. Instead of seizing both legs at the same time, you get hold of the lead leg, allowing to attack half of his body and deal with half of his power. As usual you have to be within arm’s reach before shooting in and maintain proper posture as you change levels and penetrate.

Once you get hold of the lead leg and manage to secure the high crotch position, you can cut the corner and transition into the double leg or pick up your opponent directly from the high crotch position and slam him down.
