Belly-down side control - sprawled chest pin
Top control position derived from side control in which the chest of the top player is pressed flat onto the bottom player's chest, angled perpendicular across the torso with the hips low against the mat. The far arm threads under the bottom player's head while the near forearm carries the crossface, distributing weight across the upper torso and shoulders. The flat belly-down sprawl replaces the bouncing knee-and-hip base of orthodox side control with sustained chest-on-chest compression, limiting the bottom player's room to bridge or frame.
