Preventing half guard block



This is an unbelievably simple counter to a defense that has given me problems on many occasions. It takes less energy than the "binding pass" or going around to the back.

EDIT: Tried this technique last night in sub grappling. It worked pretty well but not as ideally as it would seem form ther above video. You really have to watch your base/posture as it is really easy to get knocked off balance.
