Backside 5050

1 / 3

Technique Description

Backside 50/50 is yet another leg-entanglement system that relies on unique entries to a basic position. It is specifically crafted to put more focus directly behind a typical lower leg lock/control setup while providing all access from that specific reverse ankle location. This makes for easy transitions as they shift onto another method that manipulates control or transitions to limb-based attacks to enhance their control while maintaining positional security with many strong advantages. Such as back-take setups from limb positioning through using a new and more dominating angle that also destabilizes users when it's unexpected by taking and manipulating their usual balance patterns. Once secured correctly, this area is difficult to break, even from people with great limb manipulation awareness, which provides that advantage by reducing reaction speed while making way to all attacks while reducing access to defensive plays. A balance must be maintained during practice, so the avoidance of injury should always be your primary objective, never that of your training partners.
