Favourite Submissions

Big fan of sleeve choke from mount and arm bar from mount or side control. Rear choke is cool too if opponent is dumb enough to give you their back! For strength in a submission move though, I think you can't go past a good triangle!!

[John Bennett]

Americana from side control.

[Ronin]

I prefer the "tap fast" move. It's quick, it's easy, and it allows me to escape from almost every position without receiving any injury.

Afterwards I can inform my opponent from a safe distance how close he came to death.

[Badger]

I like the neck between a pair of bolt-cutters submission!

I like in order of my ability: kneebar, keylock, collar chokes, armbars, ankle locks.

[keiths]

leglocks mainly heelhooks.

[david a]

Rear naked- it's just very dramatic.

Americana from guard.

leglocks when he is standing.

Any choke from any position.

[Underdog]

-Americana from guard (got my bluebelt with it!)

-Americana from the mount

-Reverse armbar from side control

-Americana from side

-Mata leon

Underdog:

If it weren't already taken, you could change your handle to "Americana"!

I like the one from guard; although I'm not good enough to catch anyone with it yet.

Maybe soon.

[Chad W. Getz]

Well I'm still just learning and touching the surface, but I find myself with good success with the
-rear naked choke
-some arm bar variations
-neck cranks.

Check out the clinch structure thread as well.

Ronin,

To get americana from guard, I always fake first.
Usually I'll fake with a quilotine choke, switch to straight arm bar, go for americana, switch etc.etc. confusion helps the suprise attack.

Just some thoughts.

You might have tried this already though...

[gungfuhero]

With a gi on I alternate between collar chokes and armbars. Without a gi I use more chicken wings and V arm locks. Heel hooks are a great equilizer when there is a disparity(sp) in size.

[Bad Karma]

My area isn't that talented (me included), but...

the three most common submission's for me to apply and get the almighty tap are:

1)Guard= arm bar attempt to shoulder lock
2)X-Body= Choke/Jaw crush w/shoulder (arm under their neck)
3)Keylock= Just doesn't matter which position

Peace
