Great overview! Trying to memorize: DLRX is available from lots of guards. In general, DISTANCE HELPS in setting it up. + try to get the DLR leg high on his hip + always mess with his balance Same side sleeve: 1) Tilt backwards (towards his butt) - swipe his hand out. 2) Sit up, grab his collar. Put butterfly hook on floor. Pull forward with arms, push into floor with leg (other leg blocks). Cross sleeve: 3) Quickly sit up, grab armpit material. Butterfly hook to floor again. Tuck arm, pull armpit, push into floor. 3a) (if he's stubborn/stupid and won't put leg down) Flippetyflop. Pull feet towards you to stabilize. 3b) Single leg grip, grab HIGH on his collar = OP single leg takedown. 3c) Switch left hand to back of his hip. Distribute his weight forward; use DLR leg to pry behind his knee. Move butterfly hook behind his knee = baby bolo/crab ride.
Another great video. Hope to see some more videos of this kind, based not on particular techniques but concepts of particular guards/positions - how to get into it (and prevent from escape), what we are aiming for there, how we can attack etc.
Incredible content as always, looking forward to incorporating this. Is the deep hook/lace knee at risk for injury if they grab your foot and accidently fall down with body weight on extended knee? If so, any simple thoughts to avoid injury (close distance and turn into them?)?
Great video Jon! This is a position I’m starting to get into after playing lasso and spider for awhile. I was wondering if from this position it would be good for a tripod sweep. Thanks!
DLR X is more of one of those positions you really don’t want to allow to happen cause if they are in deep the sweep is so hard to stop. I usually succeed the sweep before a good guy and immediately try to threaten the back with bolo crab stuff.
