Benini’s omoplata being put to the test.
An avid competitor and leader of Gracie Barra BH in Minas Gerais, today Sergio Benini brings you a detail to avoid losing the omoplata when your opponent spins.
Helped by instructor Claudio Caloquinha, Benini shows his entire transition for going into the omoplata, with important details to get it right. After coming up with the lock in place, however, Benini sets a trap with his foot, and with a hook that prevents his opponent from somersaulting and posturing to relieve the pressure on the shoulder.
