Sideride detail: attacking the turtle position

Thanks to Matt Kirtley for submitting this technique. For more information, or to contact Matt, please visit the Gracie Barra Tampa – Stephan Kesting.

These details are rather simple and may appear obvious, but I have yet to see many people actually do it to get the crucifix and instead just complain about how hard it is to get the arm out with their knee alone.

Here are two details to help you get the crucifix if they are turtling well.

First one. Let’s say you’ve sideride (one-on-one, chest on back, knee in armpit, leg and arm posted) but they are still hiding their arm.

Just grab their wrist and pull their arm out.

And step over it.

Now you’ve got the crucifix. You’ll have to pass the arm back to the other leg for the reverse omoplata.

The second way to do this starts the same — just grab the arm and pull it out.

Only this time, kick your near leg under.

Now you’ve get their arm trapped and you’re ready for the roll into the reverse omoplata.
