North south choke!! I use it all the time, can't teach it, and have people just get it. Way to many "feely" details that I think can only be learned thru personal trial and error.
There are steps brotha, just like every other technique.Quote:

3) Gable grip with the arm around the neck facing palm down.
4)The same arm pinches the elbow in tight towards your own ribs.
5)The same arm shoulder now drops down to the mat (think paper cutter) towards the gable grip.
6)Head to the mat, breath and squeeze.
7)Run around in victory!
The Japanese necktie. People just cant grasp the concept of falling to your shoulder. Not sure why cause I had picked it up easilyQuote:

Number 7 is key!Quote:

Once the vice grip is in place, don't attempt to reposition your hands at all. Your hands will rotate to the right spot due to your body falling to the side. That's the way to keep the head clinched into the right position.
