Getting the triangle with your leg circling the outside of your partner's arm is started from overhooking your partner's arm. Next, control your partner's free hand by grabbing all 4 fingers; and then, pull their hand underneath your guard; so, you can get the triangle position.

One of the sneakiest armbars you can do. When someone has you in turtle, look to control one of their arms. The focal point is to control their upper arm as tightly as possible; doing this, keeps you safe from your partner winning back control on you; plus, it's the critical feature in hitting the figure 4 armbar.

Top turtle is a dominant position in BJJ; but, your partner can also be highly defensive in this position; thus, disallowing you from launching conventional attacks; so, the alternative is to go for an unconventional submission. Control your partner's right wrist with both your hands and deadlift up to flip your partner directly into an armbar.

With a collar/sleeve grip on your partner, use your foot to check your partner's bicep, when your partner fails to control your pant leg, you can now shoot your leg over their shoulder to get the triangle.

Personally, the kimura is my absolute favourite attack; but, it's not only a submission, it's a gateway to other techniques. As your partner looks to defend your kimura, throw your leg over their far shoulder to get into the triangle position.

Although the omoplata is one of the most powerful submissions from the guard; like all attacks, nothing works all the time; and thus, we need to look at transitioning to other techniques. When your partner starts to posture to defend the omoplata, pummel your leg over their far shoulder to get the triangle.

Taking the back from the closed guard is an often neglected technique. Of course, no singular technique works all the time; so, if the back take fails; no problem, transition to a belly down armbar.
