Inverted Lockdown?

[laskar01]

Hi! Has anybody any thoughts on if or how to work the inverted lockdown from halfguard.

With inverted I mean feeding your inner leg over the opponents leg and placing the foot under your outer calf.

Are there sweeps or submissions there?

We use the Inverted lockdown in the twister-roll, from twister side control to get to the
Truck.....Why not also use it in the halfguard?
Bad idea, or?

Ya we just had a huge discussion about this like for the last 3 days, go find the thread i created with the videos of me asking about it, theres low precentage stuff you can hit if the opponent isnt wise to it but its low precentage. John botello posted a technique that might help you inside the same thread

Michael, these moves of your do look really cool. I don't understand why they´re supposed to be low precentage...

That's because you are a white belt


We did all explain in the other thread! Just sayin'

Sometime a move requires space or a set of circumstances that just won't be present against a more skilled opponent. The Indian Death Lock counter to the whip up is a good example. A savvy Lockdown player won't let you free to posture up to hit it.

If you just stand there with your hands by your side and chin in the air.Then you let me do a sweet ass 540 butterfly kick to your chin. That shits gonna look cool. Now, how am I gonna get you to stay there without blocking or moving?

If you don't understand based on all the comments on that thread then just give it hell on the mat and that will clear things up for you. The mat doesn't lie.

none of the moves were made to look cool, i took a step A and seen a step C and wondered if A B C would work... it does but it has HUGE counters, just like every move in jiu jitsu it has a counter. I brought it here so people could critique it and show me the holes with it, which they most thankfully did, evolution of game, it may work sometime it may screw you up, thankfully i have the greatest jitz family to hook me up when i have questions.

and as multiple people pointed out all your opponent has to do is seat belt you and roll forward and your stuck, simple as that.
