Triangle City - My theory on Triangle.

[Slick Rick]

Ric, lol! Man sometimes I can't differentiate between the jokes and the serious emails and messages. But when in doubt I'll bend to the business side. My bad bro.. Lol!

[Brent Hansard]

Definitely repping these after class tonight! Thanks!

[Slick Rick]

Thanks Brent! Like I said before a simple idea but sometimes simplicity flips a whole way of thinking.

So just so we're clear here, the theory is:

Anytime you have your leg over your opponent's shoulder and your other leg under their armpit, you can make a triangle?

Hi Jared, in its simplest form, that is the theory.
Simple right?

Now that you know, you can always attack someone from any position with the triangle option. At times you'll have the thigh on their shoulder, so it'll be up to you to figure how to get your leg in the opposite armpit, or vice versa- leg in the opposite arm pit, so find a way to get the thigh on the opposite shoulder.

By the way, towards the end of the vid, there was a move we made up when someone grabs for a single. Geo coined it "The Dead Man", after a breakdancing move where you spin on one hand, but instead of spinning outward like a 1990, you spin inward. So props to Geo and VistA crew.

Great shit man, I totally missed out.

Rick, I think that was the one day you missed man.

[Jared Gammel]

Somebody needs to post some arm bar theories.

[Slick Rick]

lol Jared.. I'm with ya on that. there is a lot of good material out there for arm bars. it's always great though how someone's escape to a triangle lends itself to the armbar.
