The problem I've had applying this kind of stuff is that no BJJ or sub grappling guy will willingly go to their stomach like this to avoid a pin. Quite the opposite, they're going to be turning to face you and the best I've been able to consistently apply is a near side cradle or half nelson to control them into a pin from side control. Currently working on chaining that into some kind of sub because I usually end up having to bail on the half nelson and going to an arm triangle or kimura. I know there's got to be some kind of neck crank I'm missing though.
It's a two way attack; if they don't resist the spiral ride, then you sink your arm deep for the head wrap half, and choke them out; if they do resist, then you use the shoulder separation to grab their arm with your free hand and pull it past their head.
Probably the best platform for this attack is from leg rides and body triangles, where you can follow them if or when they try to roll. They will be focused on trying to block your arm going across for the choke, but the arm attack can't be stopped like that.
