OLD TRUCKER: Whats your favourite entry

Hello everyone
We have been drilling the truck a lot at 10P London lately.
I love the truck.
Lately I have been working on positions that lead to the three quarter mount. I started with the head and arm triangle and if they are defending well, I feed them the leg.
I play a lot of lock down so always liked the Apollo choke but its not always easy to get the sub, so use the sweep to roll into three quarter mount.
I have just watched the new MTS 102 and seen the COP clinch and cant wait to give that a try.
Anybody else want to share their favourite entries into the truck please post

This was my first match in a recent comp were I was fortunate enough to get an IBJJF friendly banana split and there is a lovely moment at the end, where Alain Pozzo who was referee, shows my opponent the move and confirms its legal and then says but this is my favourite move and puts me in a twister. Alain is competing at Polaris on the under guard and showed some 10p love at the comp which was nice. Just want to point out that my roll looks like its in Slo Mo because I decided to compete the morning of the comp and my wife cooked a lovely chicken pie the night before so I was carrying a bit of baggage. Well that and I'm slow.

Good job mate, I had not seen this video yet :D
My favourite truck entry is the Fields Fly Over (aka Kill Switch). Not that I am super good at it, but I just love whenever I am able to hit it :P

Right now I'm really liking the Lucas Leite Far Hook Control-style entry from dogfight.

I'm sure it helps a lot to have long and flexible legs for this one, but one of my most effective entries is from bottom Judo Side Control. When the opponent switches his hip in a Judo Side Control position (usually in my case to hide his feet from my 1/4 guard and lockdown recovery) I am able to sneak/force one hook in over his hip. Then I dump him over immediately to the Twister if he hasn't released his head+arm headlock. Game over already.

I have heard this called the "Judo Twister" before. I like to think that as soon as you have one hook in from any position, the truck is there for you if you triangle/lockdown your legs.

100% and traditional attacking the turtle.For practice, anytime you get to the back immediately abandon the top hook and lock up the triangle/lock down. You'll find yourself getting to the truck more often. I now have 2 twisters in competition.
