Then Clamp their head and your knee (left arm is between your left leg and the right side of their heard, your right arm is over your knee gable gripping behind their head. Now stretch your arms, don't pull them, and push your right hammy into the left side of their neck will leg curling then stomping your feet to the floor.
When I first injured my hip I was devistated when I realized I could no longer do a regular lefty triangle as it put way to much pressure in it and my knee. So I revisited the wrong side triangle I had learned from at a Judo camp years before. All my triangles are righty now. Either regular righty or wrong side righty. They nice part for me is that I play weak side Rubber Guard, and with the righty wrong side triangle it gives me the kimura, inverted straight or I can clear the head, kungfu to gogo ro straight to Jiu Claw off of it.
Your wish has been granted, would you like anything else

My hip wont allow me to do a lefty triangle, all my triangles are righty. If this is the case and thats what ____ is talking about
I disagree with him about it being unsound, only if he is trying to finish it the same way as a regular triangle.
The angle and the HOW are just different. If u are doing it the way I described above you nees to gable around your knee and your opponents
head. Make sure you are close to 90° to them, push with your right hammy into their head as you straighten your arms,
then push your feet to the ground. There are also a few options with their arm.
You can kimura it, wrist lock, invereted straight on pinching it on your shoukder/neck or my favorite
just clear the head and kung fu to jiu claw. These types of wrong side triangles are common
in judo when attacking the turtle position they just seem unorthodox at first,
you just have to change your mind set on how to finish them as its not the same.
Edited because I didn't realize I had left an instructors name in there. Even though I'm sure everyone would be cool with it, that wasn't my place, sorry
