The triangle choke and an escape

The triangle choke is a submission that my instructor is great at doing, and it becomes one of the hardest to get out of. Until today. While fighting on my back with my older brother dominating me, I learned this is one of those chokes that you just have to get used to if you're on your back a lot and have long legs.

The triangle choke has a few details and hip movements you don't think about

While performing a triangle choke, I'm learning it's a lot about hip placement, and an angle you want to create around your opponents neck. Less to do with getting a good bite, but rather to do with the right bite.

Escaping the triangle choke happens before it starts.

My instructor taught me, you know it's coming, their thigh jumps up and essentially puts pressure on your head/neck. Here' you want to grab their leg, and this straightens their leg out, they are unable to create the bite. I was able to perform this while sparing. It worked great.
