Hello Everyone!
Here's the March 2012 Technique of the Month Video from my Academy (Richmond BJJ Academy) here in Richmond, Virginia.
This video contains a counter Omoplata for when your opponent tries to roll out of the standard Omoplata shoulder lock submission. Normally, most Jiu-Jitsu player will accept the roll through as a sweep and score 2 points while securing the side control position. This option allows you to continue with the Omoplata as a submission to finish the match/fight.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and please subscribe, like and comment on our YouTube Channel.
Good training, Eric Burdo
(blue namer, please)

Great move Eric. I thought you were going to roll with them, but I like this variation better because you don't give up top position. Never seen it before.
Thanks Aaron. Yes, I used to use the roll through to counter their roll through. I honestly can't remember if someone showed this to me, or if I just stumbled upon the movement while rolling one day. Either way, I use the Omoplata a lot, and use this movement If I can't prevent them from rolling through.
sick vid, def trying this ASAP. totally wouldn't work on me though
flares arms out, flexes lats
Well, obviously this variation would not work on a TUF noob who tranes UFC as hard as Brian Rule. This is for the rest of us.
Nice tech Eric! Good to see your vids monthly, always something solid. Hope all is well with you. Be well!
