Scooping a person’s lead leg when you are receiving a lot of pressure from a guy stand can open up an opportunity for you to get to your safely to your knees using the principals of a technical stand up. Once at your knees, the ability to control your opponent’s legs will get you into position for an effective take down. Get the feel for remaining tight to your training partner and it will allow you to push and pull him with ease. Attack both legs to get your opponent to the ground. Once there you can go for a foot lock submission. Be careful though because this will also give your opponent an opportunity to submit you with a foot lock.
Craig Jones has a secret weapon in jiu jitsu... his Z Guard (half guard variation). He was virtually unheard of until recent ADCC and EBI competitions where he shocked the world with his Z guard and foot lock attacks. His approach is simple, and makes sense. After watching it, your approah and execution from the Z Half Guard will dramatically change for the better.
