Craig Jones is a leg lock expert with the majority of his submission wins in competition coming from leg locks. In his instructional video, Craig discusses his approach in preventing leg attacks. In this video, we see a sample of how he approaches a 50/50 entanglement from the top position.
He discusses the BJJ Crab Ride! What is this position? Sounds like a silly name. Well, it’s an effective position with its origins in wrestling.
Craig Jones shows us an interesting transition that allows him to use the Crab Ride to escape the 50/50 position and take his opponent’s back. The Position allows him to protect his legs from attacks and transition himself to a dominate position over his opponent.
