The bottom holder opens the second Invisible Collar leg while retaining the neck-cleared knee hug, returning to Chill Dog with the first high-leg connection supported.

Begin as the bottom holder with the two-leg Invisible Collar enclosure established. Remove any finishing pressure before opening the high-leg arrangement.

Preserve the first neck-cleared knee-hug connection as you prepare to open the second leg. Open the second leg through a comfortable hip angle without wrenching the foot or knee. The completed reset is Chill Dog/Bottom with the neck-cleared connection retained. If the first connection also releases, recognize ordinary closed guard before attempting another high-leg entry.

Practice cooperatively with controlled movement. Stop at any tap, verbal signal, or distress; release all joint or neck pressure before changing direction. Do not force a trapped knee, shoulder, or neck to preserve the route.
