Im not 100% sure if I do this as an x guard defense or just when being stretched out in top half guard.
I take the leg that has been stretched up to their head and tuck it behind their head so that my knee is on the mat, their head is in the crook of my leg and my calf under their head, similar to a chairsit position. Most of my weight is driven forward and sometimes I’m able to bring my trapped leg forward so that I have something similar to a top mounted triangle but with their leg also trapped in there.
It provides me good balance, is crushing to the person on bottom and if strikes were incorporated would be very powerful, however, in pure grappling it is a position that is kind of a dead end. Anyone seen anything x guard defense related at all similar to what I’m talking about? Or submissions from there?
