Triangle- Finishing Problems
- Shoulder not buried.
His trying to turn the corner allows you to relocate and bury the shoulder - Turning pass
Most stable (before final lock) when squared up. One of the defenses is a turning pass- if he gets some posture back and starts to turn -Frame inside arm on my knee and shoulder walk to stay square. Can use elbows as outriggers, back flat on mat - Stack- shoulder walk
- Hidden elbow-get the lock, raise him with your hips, Then pull arm across
Armbar Escapes

Wrist low and flat- decreases leverage. - Head leg:
None- relax arm, move legs and head,
drag into hole.(Kimura)
Coming- block leg, head/shoulders on top.
(M7U20)
Loose on neck- swing legs, move head,
drop arm. (U28) - Regular split legs:
- Comb- hand in hole, comb
- Spread the hips- ankles not
crossed- elbow under heel
catch w/ knee.(U32) - Both legs over:
Head- look at butt, chin down
Push his legs, swing legs
and clear the head, not sit up.
Body- Sit up toward feet corner. - Hitchhiker- avoid if there is a leg over body.
