Rear Mount Strategy 

She said place her head on the opponents back, you can't get a headbutt

I think you are right in that it would be harder for the opponent to get out, vut crossing the ankles in rear mount is not a good idea since your opponent can simply ankle lock you.

I'm FAR from a seasoned bjj practitioner. However, I've heard from experts that the ankle lock fear is, for the most part, superficial. You're only in real danger of an ankle lock if your legs are too low. Even still, in a real fight, what's a broken ankle when you've put your opponent to sleep? That said, my understanding of the hook preference in rear mount is a strong opponent could find it easier to make it to his feet without em. Your back mount won't save you from being dropped on your skull when that happens. Again, i am NOT an expert.

This comment was SIX years ago but listen....don’t do that ln a grappling match. lm sure you’d be fine against someone ln the street but a grappled will ankle triangle you and break your foot ln a second. lts incredibly easy to do.

***** a pistol is a ranged weapon

***** so BBJ is kinda useless

Ronald Book in that line of thinking, electronics are useless, you can´t stop a bullet with an ipad... There are some techniques against weapons in Judo and BJJ (and ALL martial arts) but if you are a 2 yards from the armed guy you need a gun too. The martial arts are focused in hand to hand combat; if someone wants to nuke your city, the krav maga, the shaolin don´t apply, you use a nuke too

Martin Barba yeah but people don't buy electronics to protect themselves, people learn BBJ to protect themselves so your comparison is stupid.

Ronald Book Most people don't learn BJJ for self defense. BJJ is for 1v1 unarmed situations mainly, most people just like the sport aspect of it. That being said don't ask such fucking stupid questions
