#1)Side Control to Far Side Straight Armlock to Armbar

• Hero has Opp in R side control
• Opp L Arm -> Hero R Neck (key detail)
• Hero R Arm UH(under hook) Opp L arm; Hero L Arm -> back of Opp Neck

1. Hero Head and R Arm squeeze tight -> Opp L Arm
2. Hero L Hand comes over the top and -> Opp L Neck/Head; Hero L Hand/Arm pushes Opp Head -> L
3. Hero stays low and slides R Knee across Opp Chest -> Opp L ribs and ground
4. Hero L Knee slides over top of Opp Face -> Opp L Neck Area
   • Hero L foot can go -> Opp R Armpit for better stabilization
5. Hero R + L Hands Gable Grip and Hero L Forearm -> just slightly above the Opp L elbow towards the triceps
6. Hero tightens up on Opp L Arm with Head and Arms  to finish the Armlock applying pressure to the L Elbow Joint
   • The video below by Carnage BJJ/Jamie Jara shows the finish to this sequence.
   • It has slightly different leg seqeunce as he starts with his L Leg first and he decides to insert his L Leg under the back of the Opp Head. This works very well also and may provide better balance during the transition depending on your Opp.
