This video is similar to what we learned, except we learned against an opponent who is on one knee:
Details:
- Hook the left leg
- Hook in through the thigh, then scoot around to the back after grabbing the belt on the back
- Put the other leg into the nook, then lift up with the legs while sitting up to take the back
- Make sure to do a seat belt grip - remember, armpit arm on top, both palms down
We learned the Bow and Arrow choke after taking the back.
Notes:
- Open the gi collar and grab with "over" hand (hand that is not under the armpit)
- Step with leg
- Flip bottom leg under and push up CLOSE to the shoulder. This is hard
- Grab the knee and sit back
- Pull on the collar
Sparring notes:
- Against a new opponent, I did okay. Be careful to pull arms out when I get one arm trapped in
- A no gi grappler dominated me over and over, and I have no idea why
- Gotta be careful against a larger opponent. He was 220lbs and putting lots of pressure on my chest. Need to figure out how to get out
- Need to get better at restoring guard
- Got a few lucky back takes
- Successfully passed guard a few times grabbing ankles
NEED MORE PRACTICE.
