Key note. As you shrimp the foot adjoining to the knee undercutting should be lifted to access the under the space easier.👍Thanks for the post.

Thank you for the great technique. One detail I like to include is keeping a forearm framed across your opponents hip while you knee elbow escape. Hand on one hip bone elbow on the other. Opposite hand cups top framing hand for closed circuit. Bottom elbow stays inside opponents knee when on your side. This prevents opponents hips from transitioning to S mount/ back when turning hips and shoulders.

Great concept: "Attack the hole"

What also may help when undercutting the knee to ankle is trapping the opponents foot with the opposite leg in a figure four motion.

Oh shit. It worked. I got myself caught in this and tried it and it worked!

I've been trying to do the regular hip bump mount escape for months. I find it difficult to achieve anything in sparring. I'll test this one out during my training session tomorrow :D

I disagree with one thing wolverine says here, if you don't force your opponent to base on a hand all their weight is on their knees. Heavy knees are much harder to capture, so when you do this try to disrupt their balance with a bridge (sparring) or a knee in the center of the back (street) to make the knee light. This makes the escape so much easier, especially when going against a bigger stronger guy or if you are tired. He says it's not mandatory, but if you're trying to be as efficient as possible and use as little strength as possible, it really is mandatory. Try it both ways and see! ✌️
