The gogoplata is a highly effective choke submission in Brazilian Jiujitsu. It is accomplished by pressing the shin against the opponent's throat while pulling his head down with your arm. You then slip one foot in front of the opponent's head and under his chin, locks your hands behind the opponent's head, and choke the opponent by pressing his shin or instep against the opponent's trachea. A variation called a Locoplata is when the bottom man uses his free foot to push up on the choking foot and increase pressure.
- From the open guard the fighter brings his right leg up and passes it over the opponent's head or pushes his head to the side to slide his foot in front. This choke is more painful than usual chokes which block the carotid arteries.
The gogoplata is usually an air choke if applied to the front of the throat but if the opponent turns his head to the side, this becomes a blood restricting choke.
