I'm trying to remember if there's more to the following arm bar series. It's the one where you start in the envelope, and when uke turns toward you, you snag waki gatame. Then as uke curls his arm, you snag a quick coil arm bar. Then, you follow him as he rolls onto his back, laying on top of him, and getting a figure 4 arm bar. I think you can also get a straight arm bar from there, but is there any more to that series?

Switching hands to the "Kimura" coil armbar. From there you could do a ushiro kesa-faceing waki gatame, were you so inclined.

I can't remember all of them. I have one I've developed, but it is different than the one Nick does. His includes a nice compression armbar I usually miss, which occurs after the coil but before uke rolls all the way to his back. Once on the back, you can get a nice coil armbar or a straight armbar depending on how uke turns his arm.
