I used this technique on a purple belt and it was truly effective. I'm a white belt and I was proud of myself.

It’s always interesting to see different escapes when it comes to different jiu-jitsu schools

I was like WHAT?!?!? when he pulled the 3rd defence

He is clever isn't he? I've never seen this defence ever.

To everyone moaning about the gi colors, don't look a gift horse in the mouth. This is free, ultra high level shit. Watch the video again, ya dummies! Use those back arrows, and the pause button. Good lord, some people will complain about anything.

I have to tell you guys! There is this girl in my class that takes every session as a competition, and she plays dirty scratching jabbing and when she gets my arm kicks my face and obviously takes it back full power and she has hurt me pretty bad, keep in mind that I tap before she takes it because I know how she is, she STILL takes it! Despite me telling her a bunch of times. I tried this! And voila!!!! Thank you very fucking much!!! She's still dirty but has horrible cardio so she gives up soon and I take over haha Turns out that's the only move she knows . My turn!!!!!!

definetely one of the better defenses ive seen. And well explained too

At one point I was like, err... why is there so many legs and arms waving around??? Who's is who's?

I cannot thank Keenan enough for these videos. What a good human and jiu jitsu artist.

Some of the best and most useful techniques on yt. Also very well taught. Now hopefully I can escape instead of just stalling until they give up.

Took me a while to get used to but this has been my go to now.

Excellent stuff. Thanks much Prof. Cornelius!

Love how your partner shushed the kids mid-demonstration 😂. I've only been training for about 8 months, so this was great info. Subscribed.

Best armbar escape I've ever seen. Wow great video

Awesome. Thanks Keenan!

man, I rammed my knee into my partner's face while trying the 3rd defence

Wow! I love when I find something I can actually use as a beginner. Plus this escape is really effective!

thanks San Diego, CA, for showing a few tricks of the trade.

I've never seen this defence great video!

Excellent video, thanks !

Didn't know about the part you did with grabbing the leg - nice stuff. Btw, in Judo we were taught for any kind of cable grip / S-grip to just pull the elbow of the other hand - much easier than trying to overpower the grip with the legs in the elbow.

Going to use this against my sparring partner who really loves top mount armbars. Thanks!

this is a good break down, but could you guys wear different colored gis to make it easier to see what's going on?

I love this escape... VT1mma has a video exactly like this

You two should use different color Gi's. Its confusing sometimes

This man will probably save my life one day.

thanks Keenan!

Thankyou Keenan. My arms are now invincible.

keenan thank you

Awesome escape, have always struggled using a legit armbar escape instead of just defending and trying to get to my knees using just momentum. Thanks Keenan

Keenan is a real genius. How come he creates all these moves?

Awesome escape!

Very interesting, Thank you 🖒👍

your video is a gift from christ

The first position is one of my favorite escapes, once the leg goes over my head I catch it with palm up and do a sit up.

Good one bro...

Definitely trying this

wow impressive, in a well-controlled environment

3:08 i see one issue with this and thats when you uncross your legs a very skilled guy could see that and make the transition into a knee bar..

Great technique.

Thanks for the lesson!! OSS!!

This is TOO SAUCY!

4:34 Too many limbs guys..!

Amazing

What's wrong with the 'Hitchhiker' escape? Works for me :-). Thank you for uploading this video and all of your other videos. They have been very helpful in improving my ground game and are much appreciated.

Awesome! Thanks!

Could you counter this by switching the arm you are controlling his arm with and falling back for the armbar more towards his head ?

Superb.

Love this

Shit. ill never remember all that!

This is the only escape I actually use now. It's been my go to move. I was wondering; what if the top guy crosses his legs, and I'm unable to get his bottom leg between my legs? That happened to me the other day, my escape got shut down, and ended up getting arm barred. Thanks!

this seems like something you'd have to drill like 10,000 times to ever have a chance of pulling it off without fucking something up

Very slick!

Thats like tieing a knot under pressure

If I ever get in an actual arm bar, I’ma just bite their feet

That was sweet!

If I knew this yesterday!!!!! Lol Good enough... rolling and learning....

Thanks man i got f up today in an arm bar totally stepping my game up shit made me yell from the pain the blue belt went hard on me as a small white belt... now im more hungry

Man honestly, Fucking Love this!! For a week noone been able to armbar me!! Now i can survive mwaaaahuahuahuahuahuaa. Usually after i hold back of my knee and when i trap their leg inside the triangle, they'd abandon their armbar.

Shouldn't he insert his right hand under his knee by approaching from the outside instead of the inside? I have tried both angles (drilling at home only) and bringing the arm there from outside the leg results in a much stronger grip on the hand. Maybe I am wrong.

I have a really hard time transitioning to the 3rd one, any tips?

You're a fucking magician dude. Keep it up

Good luck pulling this off in the heat of the match

Sometimes the other guy's leg looks like Keenan's arm, lol. Awesome technique will try it out today. Thanks

Great stuff but I want to know how to counter these defenses especially if they grab their leg?!

Keenan, do you ever catch a Darcy when he is almost on your back?

great!

Can you just go for the 3rd defence straight away?

That was useful!

Nice!

One word: knowledge! Suck it up! Thanks

Right now my arm bar defense is just being flexible enough to take my opposite foot and shove their hands off my arm and then go into a kind of backwards mount.

🔥❤️❤️❤️Ossssssss Thank you 🙏🏽

tnk u keenan but i want to know haw roger defend buchecha armbar ??

very smart technic

2:27 LOL @ the finger to the lip

4:35 is what we show anyone who's skeptical that BJJ is "physical chess".

Love this series.. BUT. Higher ranks immediately switch to an inverted triangle or bow n arrow. Not complaining -- I'm just a blue and I was able to fight off a black belt for several minutes with this series. Against lower ranks I'm nearly un-armbar-able... if that's a word. (It is now.)

oss!

Try this later

i like to skip right to grabing the calf from the rnc grip.

Everything I try to learn something simple from Keenan he always does some crazy shit lol

DIAMOND INFORMATION

This was good but in the future make sure to use two different colored gi's

armbar defence is complicated

"S" grip??? all this time I though G.I. Joe used a "Kung Fu" grip...

what if they cross their feet and you cant move their legs? anyone have a solutiont o that?

Who the hell prefer an S-Grip vs a Gable? S-Grip in that position and you're lucky if your fingers doesn't snap. Heck even a pistol grip on the gi would be better than an S

Somebody notice that when he's on the ground he look very similar to meregali 😂 ?

O MY GOD! Whos arm was who's???? LOL

Too fancy .. Can't be possible in real Competition

5:10 6:28

2:04 technique

What’s wrong with those trainees??? They act like enemies!! There’s also a BUG Difference in weight!!

This is too convoluted.

That escape is way too complicated compared with the bread and butter armbar escapes that I use.

But usually the opponent's legs are stronger than my arms. Don't they?

I don't love it

"I don't know what this grip is called." You're a black belt and you don't know? What kinda shit is that.
