    Wrestling Spladle in jiu jitsu?

    Hey guys, don't post much on here but I use the shit out of it so keep on keepin on. I don't train at a 10P location but proudly use the system. Alright to my question, has anybody had success with the wrestler's spladle in jiu jitsu? In wrestling you would let their head fall to the mat and rock back so they would be pinned, instead of going the wrestling route I started putting my hip on the back of their head and hipping in. Basically turning it into a neck crank/sufficating choke. The idea started about a month back when thinking about how the twister came from wrestling and it got me thinking about what other wrestling transitions could be used in jiu jitsu. I've been hitting it a lot in practice and came close in competition a couple weeks back. What I've found is it's great for countering guys shooting for singles and most guys don't know exactly what they're into until it's too tight. I've hit it in dog fight position a couple times as well when you limp arm and throw over the back, almost like an inverted truck position. Anyways I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this and if Eddie has ever covered it. Thanks

    Here's a quick link in case you're unfamiliar with the move

    I have hit it a couple times from the feet when someone goes for a single leg. I think it has a lot of potential in Jiu Jitsu. Would love to see what the 10th planet freaks can do with it in the lab.
    Interesting thought on hitting it from dog fight. I had a thought awhile back about going for it from the crucifix if they're still turtled.

    Looks almost like you are putting your opponent in a god position to berimbolo to the back, no?

    Yeah it's tough from dogfight because you have to hope your opponent puts his leg over yours to drive you to your back. Haha but yeah I knew if it would catch any fire it would be from the 10th planet guys tinkering with it. Most traditional BJJ guys would just laugh it off as usual

    Not really, you have to be put in it to feel just how immobilized you are. It's almost always a game over pin in wrestling.

    I've used it to slide up into a toe hold a few times just messing around. It's legit.
