This is a cool armbar variation I haven't seen before but I will definitely be using!

Jason Scully: 49 Back Mounts In 6 min.

I'm sure everyone will see some that they use all the time and see a few new ones-I know I did!

Hip Roll Escape From Side Control

This is a position I have been using a lot lately, turning my hips away from my opponent on top. I've found that rolling over either shoulder can work and land submissions! I've baited both Triangles and Americanas with this roll- it is a good technique to add diversity and unexpected attacks to your bottom game.

Robson Moura: Omoplata Sweep

This is one of my go to sweeps- I love it especially with a backstep into the mount to finish, however Robson shows the basic finish into side control in this video.

Damage Control: Another Arm Triangle

This is a follow up to another post I did with a video from these guys a while back http://www.grapplingibooks.com/2012/09/master-arm-triangle.html
In part 2 they show a very good way to get your opponents hands off of your hips when they posture up in your guard and break them back down into the arm triangle by taking advantage off their defense to an attempted Kimura. Good Stuff.

The Hip Bind

Really Nice, high percentage mount technique- I don't know about you guys, but I love reverse scarf hold; especially to mount- I really like the lock on the hip in this technique: very slick!

Jeff Glover: Half Guard Pass To Guillotine

Sneak attack! Probably not a first choice, but maybe a good option when you're really going for it! Robert Drysdale uses this move as well, and I believe taught it to Jeff (there's some random BJJ trivia for you).

Tricep Crush Half Guard Pass

OK I have an open mind, so while I think this looks like a HORRIBLE idea, I'm gonna try and and find out for my self. In my mind I see my back getting taken like 20 times, but I have been brushing up on my RNC defense, hopefully if you guys try this you've been brushing up on your back take defense as well;)

Escaping Back Control To Half Guard

Part 2 of a video I posted the other day- very similar to a Jeff Glover video I posted too- it's good stuff, so good it's worth a few refreshers!
