Watch any of the top level Jiu Jitsu fighters... Royler comes to mind especially.

You will see how fast they whip around and take that arm, its almost scary, kinda like a viper striking.

Its just, mount, bam, its on.

You should be able to make it all one fluid motion, even if you arent going as fast as these guys, it will still improve your armbars.

I wouldnt suggest concentrating to much on speed though. Make sure you are doing everything right. From my experience control of the arm, and a good S-Mount is extremely effective, even if they know what your doing, and hopefully they do, it will still be hard for them to escape it. It will at least get you in the armbar position , with them gripping their own hands, gi , etc...
