Kimura Trap TV Side Triangle

Gary Berger — Sat, 16 Jul 2022 14:30:01 +0000

I have short, thick legs, so triangle chokes are not a strong point in my game. But I do love the side triangle!

It is very simple to setup from the TV position, and once you have it locked up, it is very difficult to escape. I like to think of it like a front headlock, but using your legs instead of your arms. Plus, you have the Kimura controlling his other arm, so your opponent his no hands free to defend themselves with, and their legs are too far away to help.

We can finish the choke, a modified Kimura, or a wrist lock from the side triangle. Or, we can get to top position, which allows us to attack the choke, the Kimura, the figure four arm lock, or the spear of destiny, a viscous fist choke.

Back Crucifix One Arm Choke and Side Triangle

I glossed over the fact that you can snag a very simple one arm choke from the back crucifix. It’s a simple thing to try that doesn’t cost you anything to go for. But, if that fails, we can go to our leg hook. But what if the opponent walks away from you and prevents the leg hook?

That’s when the side triangle kicks in. I like side triangles a lot, as they are like having a front headlock, but using your legs instead of your arms. The triangle itself can be brutal, but you also can lock up a modified Kimura, wrist lock, or a top side Kimura mouse trap.
