Spider-Web Overtime help....

Hey,

was wondering what everyones preferred armbar escape is - having some trouble getting gooned by big dudes!

Hey there,

if I get the timing right I sometimes manage to secure the hand of the endagered arm in the hollow of my knee. Working from there ain't easy, but it's the best trick I know.

It's crucial though to dig the hand in as deep as possible.


I'm very interested in different ideas, though

yeh great tip! - My coach Mick Broster showed me a killer trick where you clear the shoulder opposite the attacked arm and push the leg down where you can trap it between your own legs, needs mega reps but best I've got so far - B Macs schreech was working well for while kept getting slicered thou

[Eddie Bravo]

If your right arm is the one being attacked in spider web thread your left foot thru his left arm pit and push your foot thru as deep as possible. Then pull your right arm out. If he blocks your left foot, don't give up on it, keep going back to it

Awesome - Thank you ��

I am very big on this escape here. The grip may not look that strong but holy shit it is. This is also pretty quiet for now. I haven't seen this taught by anyone else. It's great because it gives you a free hand to work on their legs with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9wVAcfm8mE

If you do this in the gi don't make the mistake of grabbing your pants. You mostly want to focus on the pinch of your calf and your thigh and then the clamp of your hand and fingers. Even if you're rolling no-gi in gi pants resist the urge to grab those pants. It will severely weaken the defense.

I love this escape!! Theres a similar defence that results in a footlock that I have good results with too!

You've got to be careful with escapes that involve trapping one of their legs between your own legs. I learned this counter from my friend Michael Carpenter at 10p Ann Arbor.

Yeah, I've seen this too. I think you've gotta "feel" them actually trying for the arm. In my experience if they're actually trying to sub you then their weight is down and you can trap the leg. If you go straight for the leg before they've committed you're gonna get something like the move above happen for sure.

I used this and my opponent just wrenched hard on my arm to try and break it free. It created almost like a bicep slicer effect and hurt like hell, lol.
