there has to be a way to set up this move.. and i am going to find it, and it will be my most awesome submission win ever.

Looks gay to me.

who looks at the world rationally, the world looks rational in return.. ;D

i won't be at judo for a while, since i am taking up muay thai and trying to avoid takedowns..

but hey, one day soon, who knows when, let's hit up common grounds for go!

Indeed! I'd offer to do it tomorrow, but I'd rather do it once I'm done moving... so perhaps a week or two thereafter.

Though I'm all about the sweaty men posing in their underwear, doesn't it seem like it would be relatively easy for the guy in the submission position to grab the ankles of the guy on top and dump him on his face? Maybe I'm missing something, I just wanted to check.

well, intuitively, since i've not experienced this move myself, it seems like the guy applying the submission will be applying pressure in such a way as to pin the guy's face and shoulders to the ground. i think that would limit his movement severely and prevent him from doing exactly that.

because it's not really any kind of ankle or leg lock, i believe it would actually damage the lower back, since the guy is kinda being bent in half. =D (imagine what would happen if the top guy, for example, sat down---*crack!!*)

i am, of course, dead serious about doing this in practice, so i will certainly remember to report my results, haha..

... if grad school doesn't work out, i could totally do pro wrestling.
