From the closed guard, he swims his hands inside his opponent's arms to grab the back of the head and triceps, and he pulls them tight to his body, using his legs at the same time to help. Next he plants his foot on the mat and escapes his hips to the side of his triceps grip. He lets go of the arm and reaches across the back of the head, cupping his hand in his opponent's armpit. Now he can let go of the head and push the wrist in, allowing him to throw his leg behind the head. His hand in the armpit grabs his shin to secure the triangle until he can adjust his hips and lock it tight with his other leg.
