Also known as Hip Bump Sweep — the canonical term used on this site.
Hip bump framed as a guard hip throw
Hip throw from guard is a descriptive name for the hip bump sweep — framing the bump as a hip throw executed from the bottom of guard.
Etymology. “Hip throw” likens the bump to a standing hip throw; “from guard” locates it on the bottom. The label foregrounds the throwing quality of the reversal over the “bump.”
Mechanics. The sweep rotates the opponent over the bumping hip as a fixed point: sitting up and driving the hip into them while controlling an arm wheels them backward around that contact, leverage rather than strength tipping them over, exactly as a standing hip throw rotates an opponent over the loaded hip.
Cross-reference. “Sit-up sweep” is a sibling alias. Full mechanical coverage on Hip Bump Sweep.
