The "Houdini" Kimura Trap
Ricardo Migliarese shows us this slick move he calls the "Houdini" kimura. It’s perfect when you're rolling with someone really strong or if you're just feeling gassed.
Here’s how it goes down: You start in guard, and when your opponent tries to push your knee to pass, instead of fighting it, you give them a bit of what they want. You stiff-arm their shoulder to control the movement, letting their knee slide over for an overpass. Just as they think they've got you, you trap their arm and snag a Kimura grip.
Best part?
You let them complete the pass because it actually sets you up perfectly to finish the Kimura. If they try to roll out of it, just follow them, keep that grip tight, and finish the submission. It's like setting a trap they walk right into - super smooth and super effective.
