Since I'm training at Lovato's, this will likely be the first thing people do if I try a lockdown.

I'm pretty sure there is a thread where this is discussed right after metamoris was on but in saying that. it's not a new pass at all. if they do this, you still have quarter guard and you can work on getting half guard back from there.

If they keep on doing it. work for underhooks first and then throw the lockdown on tight.

also remember that you should keep your elgs butterflied until they try and move, and then you straighten out your legs to put them off balance.

Mostly though its just getting those underhooks and getting your side.

Good luck

I'm slowing chewing my way through the archives, but haven't run into this yet. The video comments says it's called Twister Pass, but I don't usually put much stock in youtube comments.

As far as I'm aware it's twister half. It's not just a move, it is a position. There are heaps of things you can do from there.

Control his upper body. Whether you have an under or overhook, own it. Don't let him turn to twister smash pass.

if they do get to that point and there not staying deep when there cross bodied lots of people leave there neck open to grab around. I would assume in the Gi you could grab a lapel and really use that to your advantage.

Yes, but he LOOKS like he's from Brazil! I wonder if he can do the accent

As long as I don't have to watch him to tug there
