Keeping the leg lock discussion going...

[Chris Herzog]

Heres a video I shot last year, X-Guard to Leg Knot/Leg lace. My prefered style of attacking over the 50/50 Guard.

Great shit, I'm gonna inject that transition soon into one of my 2 week cycles

[Jon Helton]

Nice Chris! Keep em coming.

[Chris Herzog]

Sweet!

The other version is to put the left foot on the inside of the knee and push the far leg away (rather than lifting the with the butterfly hook to make the fall backward) and take forward so they land face down.

awesome video chris. See u the 18th .

Awesome brotha, make you pre-register if you can, spaces are going quick!

Nice transition. One way to make the Leg Knot even tighter is after you cross your feet you scooch butt to butt with your opponent which makes their leg bend and give you more leverage on the submission.

Agreed, especially with the heel hook. It also helps when you want the straight ankle/footlock and you don't have the overhook yet, it allows a bit more space to wrap the leg with your arm.

Great video. I had asked Reilly in another forum if the leg lace integrated well with the X Guard, since there were some similarities in some of the entries. Unfortunately he wasn't familiar enough with the X Guard to comment. It's good to see that there is indeed a transition between both control positions.

I think your on to something with these leg lock things
