Ok, just a critique—I've never encountered this move...
I'd have to put this in the same category as dragging your gi across someone's face to open up a choke, or digging your elbow in someone's inner thigh to open up the guard.
It's pain compliance stuff, not leverage, and someone can just decide to ignore it. On top of that, it's a little dirty, and whenever someone tries to drag a gi sleeve across my face, I usually go from "good training partner" to "multiple personality axe murderer."

Isnt there any risk to break your thubm with this technique?

@kenprimo Especially if you train with a spaz who moves too fast and violently :D

Ken, why the head on the opposite side? It looks like it would be easier the other way. I know you have a good reason since you pointed that detail out. Would you please talk about that?
Also, would you consider this more of a no gi break/pass?

@sleepykid156 i'm not ken but i guess i can answer this one: you're using a tripod stance, no matter how short you are, your opponent should not be able to grab your feet/ankle and make you drop. you're not try to stand straight up, but you're more like a pyramid with your head being one side of the bottom and your feet the other side.
All I can think about is that I wouldn't want to do this too fast and herniate a disk.
