The IDL works very well if you don't whip up quick and turn to your side. This sweep variation is done when a person attempts the lock.

Grappling is a chess game after all and sometimes the dog gets you and some days, you get the dog!

Thanks Brian for the great stuff going back and forward between us!

  • Hey Ari I love this counter it is great. I will have to give it a try. Also, do you have a video out of how to counter the Darce from the whip up? Thanks in advace.

  • Great explination and great defense to the IDL. Another thing you can do from that whip up is to get wrist control and go into a whizzer from the bottom as u grab the ankle. Than pull ur opponent on top to their stomach. While maintaining the figure 4 on the opposing leg transition into a calf lock. When we train later 2day I'm gonna do that technique and post it as a response to this.

  • This is pretty cool, but why post up and go to side control after sweeping the guy down? Why not just take that ankle, since you've already got your body weight on the shin... all you have to do is keep that pin on the shin and grab that left foot then crank straight up- you can dig in Robinson style. Why keep the fight going if you can submit him right there? I don't know the "rules" of Jiu Jitsu but it seems like there were plenty of opportunities to lockdown submissions within the move.

  • thank you so much Submissions101. :) i've learned so many things here..

  • i prefer the side escape and take the back

  • Nice one. I mentioned a few weeks ago that my training partner kept standing to counter my lockdown so I stopped doing it. I'm training with him tomorrow so I'll try it out!

  • I sometimes hook the inside of the ankle at the elbow if I can and use it to either sort of electric chair or sweep 'em. It works most of the time pretty well for me, but its not really against other people that work the lockdown. They just know this as a counter because of Paulson.

  • Great vid... Thanks a lot..
