There is nothing preventing an attack on my farside arm other than general awareness. This technique is to turn a bad situation, such as a very tight, neck twisted, head and arm control, into 1) a way to relieve the pressure 2) create space and keep it 3) almost definitely escape, and 4) possible submit your opponent. For this, I'm willing to risk an americana/arm triangle/arm crush. Avoiding this path bc of a small risk to your crossface arm, would be like throwing out the triangle bc you might get rampaged.

Give it a try. And, I really appreciate your feed back. Finding holes is the easiest way to stop leaks

Attacking the far arm and spinning to the back is what people do in that situation. You're giving space and allowing them that arm.

Your comparison isn't that fitting either.

I love the spinning armbar, but I don't see it as a huge threat as he shows this move. As long as you don't allow them to dominate the far arm and you are aware and use the inside arm to check the hip and stop the 180. The far side armbar is higher percentage when you have the arm controlled and the bottom man on his side.
if you feel him trying to go far the arm you trex you are still in side no worse off.


I'll play with it.

Far side arm bar isn't a huge threat here. If you are tight it's not that exposed.

Gonna play with it. I really like attacking from bottom side.

I'm going to check this out because I continually get mumped when in bottom side, and don't know any options besides either reguarding or delying the inevitable tap. lol.

This is fun. Elbow detail pretty crucial. Destroyed whites and blues but no upper belts yet. But I let the lower belts pass and work. The higher belts I'm still not letting pass and their pressure is pretty intense if they do. I'm gonna keep developing it. Thanks man.
