Lockdown 101 - Pimp Stomp - Counter to Leg Triangle

[Tyler_Casselman]

Hey guys,

I remember dealing with this problem a lot back in the day after dude figured out your Lockdown was dangerous... they would triangle their and totally block the LD.

Lucas and I were examining it today and we came up with a pretty nice solution I think

We call it the "Pimp Stomp"

Making the Diagram/Flow Chart at the beginning took at least an hour on its own... but... it was worth it haha

I like that pimp stomp....kind of like that mermaid movement to free up your trapped leg when someone is squeezing their legs together.

On the hip bump, would one run the risk of a counter Lockdown on that leg trapped in his half guard?

Yeah I think Eddie calls that "The battle of the Knee" when you are playing LD and the top guy squeezes his knees to stop the transition to Cocoon or RG.

And yes, you definitely are, but... you are on top and can work your passes hopefully before he can slap a LD on you

Good solution. I face this sometimes, especially with people who know I like the Lockdown and they will do this to deny me the Lockdown..... By the way, do you have any solutions for people who step back against the Lockdown by using the Capoeira pass? There is not much material on this.

Nice! I’ve never done that

Thank you guys and thank you Eddie.

Ive had good success with it so far... it might also be usable when the top guy is flirting with the twister pass but hasnt fully dropped his hips down yet.

More experimentation needed
