Systematic Submission Dilemmas: High Level Triangle and Leg Lock Combos

By Craig Jones

View course on BJJ Fanatics

Systematic Submission Dilemmas brings together Craig Jones’s triangle variations, leg-lock attacks and transitions between them. Entries from guard and top position sit alongside specific defensive problems and commentary on recorded rounds. Its focus is the connection between upper- and lower-body attacks within one course.

Is this for you?

• You want to connect triangle attacks with leg entanglements.
• You want triangle entries from both guard and top positions, with troubleshooting beyond the initial entry.

Consider an alternative if

• You want a short course devoted to a single triangle variation or one leg lock.

Also consider

Craig Jones: Down Under Leg Attacks — Down Under Leg Attacks places more emphasis on leg-entanglement positions, heel hooks and escape responses.

Coverage and limits

• Front, rear, reverse and side triangles, including responses to the defensive problems named for each.
• Triangle entries from open guard, closed guard, knee shields and top positions.
• Transitions into 50/50, X-guard and ashi garami, plus commentary on recorded rounds.

Limits

• The eight-volume course combines several submission families; it is not a general guard-retention, passing or back-control curriculum.
