Defoes. There's a surprising amount of power in bridging and turning hard. Sometimes it's hard to work up the gumption to actually bridge hard, because you think ''I've only got like 3 bridges in me, and if they don't work I'm just dead.'' But they're your best option.
To your other comment, he could post, but if he's posting, you're out essentially. Just twist and sit out.
Does Danaher have any interesting ideas for back escapes? That's my next project.

lost my post ok short version. Def agree on power on bridge but also wanted to point out for BJJ the one shoulder bridge can be much more useful, see around 8.30 below. This is for mount but has several of sm applications as well. Bridging for all or nothing can feel like bad idea but if you can at least improve hand position or use it to get to side or start getting knee wedge in then it feels a lot less risky.
On the second part, I would think if my far arm elbow is at his hip and my forearm is flat to the ground I am not rolling over, and it’s not as tight as clasping hands but it’s not an easy sit out either.
