thanks!
Another gem from Mr. Alvarez. Can't wait to give it a go. That knee bar from top half you showed on MTS a while back has become one of my highest percentage subs. Thanks again!
gunna add this to my game, cheers dude. it looks like a nice way to counter the defense ive been doing for spider web. my defense for armcrusher is to open my hand up and turn it flat against my chest. it releases pressure on the elbow joint and then i just let them pull my arm out slowly and then regrab the wrist. it leaves you in a triangle but i like to work from a triangle than a armbar/spiderweb. i reckon this kneebar looks perfect for it, thanks man.
also looks good for small guys like me who fighting guys that defend arm bars with one arm.
Good stuff Brent!
Thats nasty! Found my new project. Thanks man.

I can see how turning your palm to your chest offers less crushability but, if they have their hook snug inside your elbow joint with their thumb pointed up, how is that not gonna work?
No secret, Im a skeptic but . . . . I'll try it tonite. Do you have a skinny arm? Rubber elbow? :) Some of the people I crush feel it as a bicep slicer and tap before its leveraging the elbow joint. I like to rub my forearm bone a bit into the spot where the biceps turns into connective tissue (head of biceps?)
Nice! thanks for posting this!
I really like this. But I suck at one leg knee bars. I'm slow and guys always twist out of them too fast for me. But I think I can pull this off by going spiderweb into russian cowbow and use the kneebar/toehold attack that Vinny Mag showed Beaumont.
Awesome thinking outside of the box Brent. This is awesome to see people always expanding the game.
