It’s alot easier to stall on your feet.


Riding time forces guys on the bottom to get out so they don’t give up the riding time point.

Escape points allow guys who get taken down to be rewarded for getting back to neutral rather than laying on the mat.

Freestyle goes back to a neutral position after a take down and a short time interval. Stalling on the bottom is a given as you aren’t rewarded for getting back to neutral.

Without escape points stalling on bottom would be worse.

  I don't think bottom stalling would be a issue though -- Hikinghokie 03/23/2022 12:35AM
