Перевод: Anaconda Choke (katakana loanword)
The anaconda choke from turtle with gator roll uses the signature rolling transition to attack an opponent in the turtle position. [1] The attacker positions to the side of the turtled opponent, threads the near arm under the chin and around the far arm in the anaconda wrap, locks the grip, then executes the gator roll to pull the opponent from turtle onto their side. [1],[2] The turtle position is ideal for the anaconda entry because the opponent's elbows are on the mat, creating the neck-and-arm gap that the anaconda thread requires. [2] The gator roll is particularly effective against turtle because it eliminates the opponent's base entirely, rolling them into a position where escape is extremely difficult. [2],[3]
The turtle-to-anaconda with gator roll became one of the most common anti-turtle attacks in competition grappling, developed during the 2000s as turtle defence became increasingly prevalent. [1] This combination exemplifies the evolution of front headlock attacks into a systematic anti-turtle toolkit. [2],[3]
Dual-purpose technique — the gator roll simultaneously breaks the defensive turtle position and finishes the strangle. Highly effective because the turtle's rounded posture creates the ideal anaconda geometry. [1]
Combines the wrestling turtle attack with the BJJ anaconda and gator roll finish. The turtle is a common defensive position in both wrestling and BJJ, making this an important cross-discipline technique. [1]
Used in competition when opponents turtle to prevent guard passes or back takes. The gator roll from turtle is a primary method for attacking the turtle position in no-gi events. [1]

Still Rolling emphasizes preferring to lock your hand over top and pull in tight, as hooking it up underneath gives opponents a known defense to escape.
Instead of just tucking your head and attempting the choke, pull back and extend your opponent's arm—this pulls their arm out and makes the roll much easier, especially against experienced wrestlers in nogi.
Still Rolling stresses getting tight under your opponent's head with a strong gable grip and elbows in, then pulling them to you so you can shoot your grip across—this positioning is where you'll really be able to finish the choke.
Try to hook a leg if you can to stop the escape, but the main focus should be getting tight and getting under their head, which is where the finish comes from.

Основные ошибки, на которые стоит обратить внимание: Threading from directly behind — approach from the side to access the neck-arm gap; directly behind limits access / Not connecting hands before rolling — the grip must be locked; rolling with an open grip loses the position / Rolling in the wrong direction — always toward the trapped arm; opposite direction opens the loop / Not committing to the roll — the gator roll requires momentum; tentative rolling allows the opponent to base and resist.
