When trying to perform the foot scrape to escape the mounted position, an opponent may be able to glue the laces of their foot down to the mat making it difficult to perform the move. Instead of trying to force the scrape matt will opt to hook his foot under theirs to lift their leg and trapping it into his half guard.
