Nice!!
I have the chance train with this guy . We will be having him in our gym for a weekend seminar soon. Check out his highlight videos. He has that high pressure chute box style.
That is how you pull half guard!
It looks to me like getting into electric chair and stoner control is super dangerous for your opponents knee (the one in lock-down). My buddy is in physical therapy now after getting his ACL reconstructed after I tore it doing the same thing to him, and I've seen plenty of vids on here where it looks like some serious damage has been done to guys.
Don't know what my point is but damn if I don't feel uneasy putting that on guys now.
There is a good way to keep from being injured when caught in a submission.Quote:

"happy" rainbow? lol I haven't heard that yet. I'd like to steal that with your permission :-)
It is dangerous just like any other submission. You have to take care of your training partners.Quote:

I wish we had another angle on the video, because it looks like the guy had his leg on the shoulder bent back and maybe got it rollled on. At that angle that would do some dmg to the knee, but the actual submission itself is harmless i think.
If it was harmless why would you tap?
If you hug tha shit out of his leg and your squeeze and extend your lockdown tight enough to stop his hips from rotating. The knee does.
Shawn, whats mine is yours. Never even have to ask.
funny thing is the leg that was hurt was the one he had in lockdown if you watch close he was able to bend that leg sideways with his lockdown.
You can actually reap the knee that is over the shoulder also.
Yeah, thats a transition. What I described above is how you destroy the leg bein locked down with the ec alone.
huh? what is a transition? You were describing how it rotates the knee that is over the shoulder right?Quote:

Thought you were talikin about transitioning to hh from fail ec by reaping leg over hip. Makes sense?
It would be so much easier if we just had a mat right now..
Was that almost a flying electric chair?

So was that an accidental submission do you think? I'm concerned about actions that result in serious injury, like when not having time to tap. I thought that's the main problem with heel hooks??-->by the time you realize what's happening (feel or see anything) your knee gets destroyed. I'm not too worried about a triangle harming my training partner/opponent.
