favorite path?

[Kyle Spalla]

Most effective for me has been: knee to centerline guard break> double under pass> TSC> traditional side control> destroy the near arm> americana. It's so simple and yet so damn effective the way coach teaches it. I'm dead serious. You think you know an americana until Coach Zog teaches it. I barely have to move an inch to get the tap.



My actual favorite is the one we're working on now.

Traditional side control> destroy the near arm> twister side> tip toe mount> "let it happen" (kind of an in between position that can either lead to an arm triangle or s mount)> s mount> spiderweb> triangle.

I love this path. I gotta get the reps in to really get good at it though. I've only landed it once.

Not gonna liken it would be pretty mean.

LMAO of course you would. You triangle me at LEAST once a sesson. Usually twice. Hahaha.

I usually follow three paths:

Reverse Lockdown - Half and Half/Plan B/Power Keg (If I'm down on points and time is almost up) - Full Guard if I can't land the sweeps or submission

Shitty Mission Control - Locking the Shoulder - Armbar/Keylock from Bottom - Spider Web if I miss the Armbar

Pyramid - Rubix Cube - Puppet Master

For me, using the traditional path against guys who know the system is a little difficult. I go up against guys who usually just 'Home Alone Defense' and posture their way out. But of course if the guy gives me a free New York, I'll shoot for the Invisible Collar.

This is the path we are currently working on, been working on it about 2 months with some serious help from ZOG, can't say it's a favorite yet, but getting there!

Side control(bottom)>jailbreak>ham sandwhich attempt>x-guard>heisman>sickle sweep> knee knot>hand pressing foot flex.

[Chauncey Nu'usolia]

Butterfly guard>Deep 1/2 Sweep>escape out the back door>take the back>armbar

[Josh Mahoney]

pull guard > mission control > new york > chill dog > jiu claw > always have trouble finishing the omaplata, so I just go for the twist-o-plata instead.

[Derek Stewart]

mission control - meat hook - reverse triangle - underhook the trapped arm and shrug it over like you would from invisible collar - deep hook - swim move- spider web - armbar

I wanna see this one :-)
