Thanks to Brandon for giving Lockflow permission to republish his video.

  • Pass 1
  • Brandon is in Ludwig's 1./2 guard. Notice how Ludwig has his arms in tight and is hunting for his next grip
  • Pass 1
  • Brandon reaches over Ludwig's left wrist and pummels for the under
  • Pass 1
  • Brandon reaches his left arm around Ludwig's head and locks his palms together
  • Pass 1
  • Brandon drives his weight forward and puts Ludwig on his back. Brandon then shifts his hips to the left.
  • Pass 1
  • Brandon keeps his left knee wide and keeps that same knee on the mat as kicks his left instep on top of Ludwig's right inner thigh by his knee
  • Pass 1
  • Keeping Ludwig's right knee pushed down with his foot, Brandon walks his hips upward
  • Pass 1 - Mount
  • Once Brandon's right knee passes past Ludwig's 1/2 guard, Brandon slides his knee to mount.
  • Pass 1 - Side Control
  • If Brandon would rather go to Side Control:

    Once his right knee passes past Ludwig's 1/2 guard, Brandon slides his right knee to the left across Ludwig's body

  • Pass 1 - Side Control
  • After pulling out his right leg, Brandon solidifies his side control position

Passes are cool and all, but will an opponent really allow you swim an escrima/underhook so easily? Certainly not!

Been working the sit out pass lately. Been trying it on grapplers of all sizes. Most people are strong and smart with their underhooks and don't allow me to shoot my arm in. Even fighting to wing their shoulder up seems to be a problem. Searching for an underhook can be a real hard pummeling fight.

Just an idea although I know this tube was on escaping:
What about a shin lock/toe hold from the half side control/in his half guard pos?
Just wondering if other people have tryed countering with subs or even using some pain element if u dont get the sub at least you get out coz the guy is in too much pain.
