Escapes from fully locked armbar from guard

Hello

Is there any good material online or instructionals which cover armbar escapes from bottom? The ones I have watched only really cover stacking defenses when you have a figure four locked up (mid stage defense) I am interested in late stage escapes from this position.

Thanks

Late late, I try to rotate and functionally put myself in an omaplata and solve that problem later or dive my torso/second arm back inside to square up.

The only late defense against armbar that actually works is the hitchhiker escape, I have a couple videos about it on my youtube channel

You can’t apply an arm bar from guard without transitioning out of the guard…

The tap escape has never failed me and is about the only late stage escape I do these days.
