Akomi. You should be ashamed of yourself. That's motherfuckin' Shinya Aoki.

More on topic though:
The gogo isn't something I'd always recommend going for as it requires some flexibility and also that you can pull off an omoplata very quickly. I use it mostly either as a suprise attack when I miss a double wristlock/kimura or to mess with the muay thai guys in shooto class  . Still, it's a very risky move so if you're gonna use it then be quick about it! Edit: Quote: |

In my opinion, its a very hard move to pull off, as soon as they put their chin down its hard to submit them cause allot of people can resist.
Also, posturing really helps to defend the move.
I think its only a good move if your sneaky with it.

Yeah, you definately have to be sneaky and set it up. Has anyone been succesful in pulling it off if their opponent turns his/her head to the side and your shin is on their jaw? I wonder if that would still work.
Tick, that vid in your quote is halirious!

Its sort of a last resort move if you ask me.......def not a high percentage...
Ive pulled it off once during sparring......other than that......just a lot of wasted energy the other two to three times I've ever tried it........its hard to get any semi-experienced grappler to keep their neck hanging straight out for it to be effective.....
