I've found that, like other positions, it's only dangerous when the person caught in it starts to explode or spazz out of it, making up shit as they go. Usually they're the stubborn athletic types. It's an awesome set of traits to have when you know how to get out of a position, but if you don't even understand the position you are in, it can lead to bad things.

Personally, I try to pay attention to when somebody is trying unorthodox stuff from a potentially dangerous position. I usually ask them about their knee position and then slowly back off on the submission/control/grapevine/etc.

Common shit I have to back off of are: when people get stubborn about hip control during a leg lock giving me a weird lateral angle on their knee rather than the straight knee angle that i need for the sub. When people try to force their hips square with me during a twist back sweep while their back leg is bent sideways. Berimbolo rolls where their leg isn't penetrated all of the way. When people continue to pass my ankle lock attempt even though I still have their ankle and their leg is sideways. And people who try to turn their hips to power out of a lockdown.

Yeah, it's often the one who is applying the lockdowns fault. In comp we go 100% thought the tech I mentioned. If you get a strong ld and a good bite on his thigh with yours. In other words stay super fuckin tight. Then evil rainbow while circulating and extending the ld while staying super tight. You can pop a knee. It moves laterally while slightly twisting. Knees don't like to move that way.

hey heres that video finally. ive been having problems with my paypal account so i cant put it right up on the forum but heres the link to the video

first of sorry if anyone has problems with the accent, im from new zealand. cant help it but whats important is u have to have good ankle flexibility and bigger feet is always a positive. be careful doing it against bigger guys as your knee can possibly be under pressure. the thing about it is though u have such good control that if ur knee is feeling strain you can just break him down to release it. ive never had any problems with it and my knees can be pretty problematic.

you can get submissions from here what u want to do is get your outer leg shin bone and rub it right under their gastrocnemius (big bulgey part on ur calf) u get it below there and u should be set but dont make it too low of course, then put the pressure on and hold it for a while, maybe try a few arm triangles from bottum or ninja chokes to distract them. dont expect an instant submission unless you have a good leg squeeze either. this is just a control with an almost submission, a bit like invisible collar. id warm ur ankles up a bit first just roll them around and it can be a bit sore holding it sometimes but were fighting here not making daisy necklaces so i think we'll all be fine.

apart from that give it a try and write up what u all think. theres a bunch more u can do with it than i showed there but my cell doesnt have much memory left. ive tried out twister with this and its worse than normal lockdown because of where the foot is he can just lift it up and is free but from half guard apart from being a bit harder to untangle its just the same stuff.

Have fun

Vid says it private and I can’t watch so I still don’t follow what you’re talking about. Is this the Kamikaze calf crank from the bottom like in Eddie’s “The Twister” DVD?
