About this video

Initiate from a double guard pull by catching the opponent's ankles and sliding in to set up ankle locks. If the opponent's feet are too flexible for a successful lock, use the attempt to create the illusion of an attack, buying time to set up the next move.

  1. Control the opponent's collar to maintain dominance. If they try to scoot out, you can still manage the situation.
  2. If the opponent attempts to come on top, transition to a single-leg X-Guard. If they remain in place, reach for and lift their foot, bringing it across to the other side for a leg drag position.
  3. Cuff the opponent's knee and start to come up, keeping their leg pinched down to prevent them from rising.
  4. Secure the position by grabbing your own knee, choosing either an underhook or an over-the-shoulder grip. Place your knee next to their hip to finalize the pass.
  5. If the opponent starts to scoot out before you can cross their leg, switch to the 70/30 guard.
  6. From the 70/30 guard, lift and place their toes on your belly button, securing the Estima/Tama lock for the submission.

Adapt to the opponent's defense to decide whether to pass or submit.
