Thankyou! It catches a lot of guys unawares bwcabec they're used to the choke coming from the same side as the hook that's already in. It's also good to threaten the 2nd hook so they have to block that side, so they leave their neck easier to access

I'd say I probably get more views from Reddit but I usually get a good discussion here on sherdog, which is awesome

As someone who is awful at controlling the back, and typically spazzes for submissions, this will work perfect for my game!

Never seen that grip detail before... wondering if it applies to any other chokes...

haha, you never even have to fully take the back, so it's perfect

this grip applies to all the collar chokes from the back where you align your hips behind the head like that

I'm playing around with rolling baseball bat choke - mostly works on whitebelts who have not clue. But have caught the odd blue belt here and there and came close to catching some purples.

Nice technique. Will have to try it a little during open mat.

where are you catching that from?

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Closed guard or side control.

Most of my training partners are wise to it now though..lol

 

[Invisible Jiu Jitsu]

nice!!

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

nice!!

Meaning I';m in their closed guard and kinda bait it.

Also working on it from back mount but that is a very complicated one - at least for me.

Are you giving them the sweep and turning before they can settle on top?

So do you know the choke you use from closed guard that is used mainly to open the guard?

Well I get the baseball bat grips and then stand (keeping mind of their hips and legs as getting arm-barred is a real danger) and pretend I'm trying to do that choke. Then they usually open guard and from there I jump/roll towards there head and the side that had the four fingers in grip. I'll try it when the guard is still closed as well but they end up in mount when you do that roll but if the grips are set then it tightens up.

LIke I said I'm just playing around with it.

So I was trying this yesterday - during live rolls (not having drilled it) and I kept wondering why I they were slipping out or I was land flat on my back.

Then I realized (afterwards) that I was not switching the grip to the opposite side that you have your hook inserted and then standing and turning to the side that your hook is on (if that makes sense).

I had this look on my face once I realized the mistake I was making.
