Cup their shoulder with your underhook and post with your other hand. Use your underhook to pull them towards your and onto their side. Bury the elbow of your underhook in their belly as you do this and keep pressure on them. This is the ‘up and crush’ position…
Lean towards their hips and bring your top knee in to pommel over their inside arm. Use the knee to pin the arm to the mat. Put your bottom leg over your top leg and windshield wiper to switch the leg pinning their arm. You should still have the posted hand on the other side of their body…
Step over their head, be sure to put the foot on the stepping leg directly behind their spine to stop them from rolling. Keep your other knee tight as well to keep them on their side…
Turn 180 degrees for the arm bar…
Prevent the hitch hiker escape by bringing their wrist towards their leg. This will make the hitchhiker escape into a partial kimura.
