The inverted triangle easily, that was insane.

There were some excellent submissions this year though, Maia's tringle on Sonnen was a work of art, but pure "holy cow" moment was that inverted triangle getting locked in, when I saw it I jumped out of my chair it was that impressive.

The underrated sub of the year is Seth Dikun's flying triangle. Not enough people saw that.

Aoki submission was insane. I've never seen anything like that before.

Unfortunately, I didn't see any of those. The best submission I saw this year was probably Kendall Grove doing was looked like a faint of an armbar in order to lock in a triangle on Roasholt (sp?)
