@asid101010 Most BJJ guys will call the underhook version I’m using here a
Kesa, when it clearly isn’t what Judo guys would call it. BJJ folks often
don’t care about this distinction while Judo guys get pretty ticked off
that we’re so ambivalent about terminology. This is a larger conversation
related to conservative/traditional martial arts vs. progressive sports
that break the mold, break the rules, and ignore tradition on purpose.
Anyway, the underhook version rocks. 🙂

that seems like a strange kesa Gatame, shouldnt the far side underhook be
wrapped around ur head/neck – where the nickname “Scarf hold came from?
because it looks like a scarf which would make him already have his arm
free and elliminate ur chance at the twister? (not trying to criticize only
ask to learn how u ended up with him having the underhook rather than the
more headlock position. ) Thanks a lot.
