Offensive Trapping Patterns (5)

1. Pak Sao → Lop Sao to the high outside gate (high outside right lane)
2. If penetration fails, disengage to the inside gate (high middle lane)
3. If penetration fails, drop levels: rear-hand groin shot or groin slap (front hand works here as well).
4. Bilateral distraction: slap one ear, slap the other, pull the arms into a shoulder trap, then strike decisively.
5. Deception sequence: fake low, fake low again, then trap and strike high.
