Double Drag | Omoplata

Executing an Omoplata from the double drag position:

1. Perform the double drag, moving yourself out of the way as your opponent's arm goes across your body or to the outside.
2. If the arm ends up outside your body without weight behind it, push the opponent's head away or spin their elbow to prevent them from recovering and applying weight on you.
3. Use your outside leg to sweep over their arm, aiming to contact their armpit or shoulder with the heavy part of your leg between your hip and knee.
4. Ensure you maintain control of the opponent's elbow to prevent losing the arm during the motion.
5. Extract your bottom leg from under their weight, keeping your leg heavy to prevent them from rising.
6. Engage in a race to get your hips higher and faster than your opponent's to gain the upper hand.
7. Connect to the far shoulder to prevent the opponent from rolling away, using grips on the lapel or sleeve for control.
8. Adjust your body, bringing your head close to theirs, and apply weight over their lower back to keep their hips down and secure the Omoplata.
9. For the finish, ensure the opponent's hips remain down, and you can either bite down with your legs or maintain grips to prevent them from rebuilding their base.
10. If facing an opponent with flexible shoulders, shift your grip lower on the arm and push the elbow to the mat, repositioning your leg over it to create a Kimura-like leverage.
11. Drive the arm forward with your belly to increase the leverage on the shoulder attack, potentially adding a wrist lock.

Remember to maintain control throughout the transition to prevent the opponent from escaping or countering the submission attempt.
