Escape from the mount position, the opponent has a hand on my throat. I grab him at the crook of his elbow, I now grab his shoulder, cinch my elbow down, so that he can't yank his arm out. Try and pull your arm out, please Max.Keep his arm down and now I trap his ankle. This piece here sometimes I can do without it, okay, if I can't find his ankle it's no big deal. I just bridge off my toes, and I go over my shoulder, not to the side, over my shoulder, and that's your escape from the mount.
