Leg pull pass
Also known as Leg Drag Pass — the canonical term used on this site.
Names the leg-pull that starts the drag
Leg pull pass is a descriptive name for the leg drag pass — naming the pull of the opponent’s leg across the body that opens the drag.
Etymology. “Leg pull” describes hauling the near leg across the centreline; “pass” attaches the objective. The label is mechanical and lineage-neutral, foregrounding the pulling action over the “drag” terminology.
Mechanics. Pulling the leg across relocates the foot offline and holds it there — a single-side foot clearance. With that leg cleared and the foot unable to re-engage, the passer drives chest into hip and advances around the remaining leg.
Cross-reference. “Hip-to-hip pass” is a sibling alias. Full mechanical coverage on Leg Drag Pass.
