50/50 Attacks: Finish Backside 5050 Off Back Step

Attacking the backside 50/50 position involves preventing the opponent from establishing a true 50/50 guard.

1. After forcing the backside position and weaving through, it's crucial to stop the opponent's backstep to avoid ending up in a 50/50 guard.
2. If a heel hook bite is already secured, reinforce it by holding the opponent's ankle. As they backstep, keep the knee inside and the foot on the opponent's stomach.
3. If there's no heel hook bite, transfer the foot over or to the inside. This allows for establishing a cross-ashi garami and initiating attacks.
4. Should the opponent manage to backstep, maintain the foot on the stomach. The free foot can either come over the opponent's body or inside, near the opponent's hip, to facilitate finishing the submission.
5. The finish involves ensuring a good bite on the heel, keeping the knees in line, bridging through, and looking over the shoulder while closing the knee.
6. The primary goal is to prevent the opponent from backstepping and locking up a 50/50 guard by keeping a foot in the stomach and controlling the distance.
7. Depending on the situation, either look to attack the second leg or the primary leg's heel for a submission.
8. There are multiple finishing positions available, but the key is to follow the opponent's movement during the backstep and maintain control to prevent them from securing a 50/50 position.
