@jtstevenson81 Yes there are several things you can do you can use the jaws
of life to get the double under hooks or you could stomp and get to
butterfly guard and there is someother stuff too. Just explore in rolling
and see what works for you 🙂

@jtstevenson81 The lockdown is mostly about controlling the leg to prevent
easy passes. So you can lock down the knee…but double underhooks are
preferable because you have more control of the full body and have better
leverage for sweeping.
