How to Cross-Choke An Opponent In A T-Shirt
The standard cross-choke needs lapels. Rener and Ryron Gracie show an ezekiel-style choke variation from guard that works on an opponent in a t-shirt.
Many dismiss the value of cross-chokes for self-defense, seeing as the standard variation doesn't work with an opponent in a t-shirt. While the standard cross-choke works great for any bad guy wearing a jacket, coat, or other top with 2 thick, grip-able lapels, there are many ways to modify the choke for use with a t-shirt. In this highlight from a Gracie Street Choke Seminar, Rener and Ryron show how to perform a killer ezekiel-style choke variation from the bottom of Guard, with an opponent wearing a tee.
