Standard Mount - Top
DominantStandard Mount
You are sitting on their torso, and the position is held with your upper body and your knees rather than by squeezing your legs. Keep your knees high toward their armpits, your hips down, and your hands off the mat where they cannot be used against your base. Ride their bridge instead of resisting it, and attack once they have committed to a direction.
Control
Maintain your position and neutralize your partner's attempts to escape or advance.
Goals

Stay on top while your partner bridges and shrimps, using balance and weight rather than grip strength.
