I've been out of the loop for a couple of year's. I was playing around with my son and went 50/50 on him (I'm the self proclaimed king here, IMO)
He transition from several different positions, tapping me at will with heal hooks and toe holds (my gout foot, jackass!) I had NO offensive.
Is the 50/50 out dated? He (smart ass) said to look up "modern legs." I did, it's a bit overwhelming. It appears leg locking has gone the way of the guard? Meaning, many, many versions, butterfly, spider, worm, etc.
I also got the impression in no-gi people pull leg locks vs pulling guard? Are leg locks taking priority over the closed guard in no-gi?
BTW, I'm speaking no-gi here.
