Single Leg X

How To Escape Back Mount And Get Single Leg X or Butterfly Guard

In today’s BJJ technique video I share an idea on a Back Mount Escape that will land you right into a strong Single Leg X position. This escape works well in the gi and no gi alike. I’ve been showing this to my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu students over the past month and it’s been useful to them. It’s also a technique I’ve found super useful to me with my training.

During the back mount escape I also show several fundamental details that are useful for other types of escapes from the position as well.

What I like about using an escape to offensive position is that it throws off the person. In a quick transition they went from dominant position to being on the defensive.

Hopefully if you’re struggling with escaping Back Mount or getting stuck in a bad position after the escape this video is useful to you!

Thanks for watching the video, I hope it’s useful to you.
