Dave from Macs's MMA told me it should be up in a few days.
I have been using that set up/escape forever!!! I have a pretty high percentage with it. But I really like your details about controlling the knee, and stomping the foot for better control ;) This will def add to my technique. Only thing I have done differently is I push on the hips, is there a specific reason your pushing on the rib cage? Just asking, as you are the leglock master :)
Yes, I find when I'm pushing on the hips I'm creating space away from me as if I'm escaping to butterfly guard. If I'm maintaining my hand position on his ribs I'm making sure I'm creating space upwards in the direction I need to pull my knee throuh, so I can cleanly transition to The Reaper.
Thanks, that was my guess, but wanted to clarify. (singing) "Don't fear the Reaper... Unless the Zog is puttin it on youuu.... Then just tap out baby, don't lose your knee now... Just tap out baby" LoL
All you have to do to escape this is fall to your back. ;)
Ouch!
Mmmm...
DRILLING this technique reminds me as to why we wear rash guards. i mean, be careful not to get your thumbs, wrist, and such trapped especially once rolling against a resistant opponent.
