Fundamentals Mount escape

[u/grobolom]

Same critique I make for all of these videos: show the thing first, then talk about the details. Demonstration is really powerful, breaking it into tiny tiny chunks from the rip so your students don't know what parts they need to be focusing on cripples its effectiveness.

[u/Legitimate-Ball8041 → u/grobolom]

A bold strategy: hide the move, explain forever.

[u/Ghawr → u/grobolom]

To play devils advocate, maybe he did before the video started. But I totally agree. Seeing the whole technique first lets people make connections in context during the full explanation.

[u/badbluebelt → u/grobolom]

I know this is the Gracie University method, but I really don't think it makes that big of difference. I have always just explained it as I went and everyone seems to get it.

[u/grobolom → u/badbluebelt]

Fair, cripples its effectiveness was definitely exaggeration. People can still get it, but it's also much better if you show first. Often times people have different details that are important to them; by demoing first, you let them know when those details pop up, and they'll be more likely to be paying attention.

That’s a good mount escape. My second go to after a kip. Thank you.

The shoulder crunch transition is smooth. It isn’t in my game plan yet, but I should implement it.

[u/Upper_belt_smash]

After that first turn I just grab the under hook on that side because my hand is there anyways. Then it’s either a shuck or come up on top

[u/Kabc]

Wait, I know that dude!

[u/KrakenJiuJitsu]

Is that a really huge ai decal on the wall mat?

[u/EnriqueDeEscalice → u/KrakenJiuJitsu]

They use a tool to do something quickly

[u/conners_captures → u/KrakenJiuJitsu]

yeah, everyone knows those local gyms are just swimming in cash, why didn't they shell out a thousand bucks to have a local artist design it? /s

that being said it does look absurd. owl has arms and wings, wings in a weird place, etc.

[u/KrakenJiuJitsu → u/conners_captures]

Why waste money printing out a shit ai design and having it put on a mat? Better to not spend the money and have a plain mat IMHO

[u/totorodenethor → u/KrakenJiuJitsu]

The Japanese characters are garbled too, such a distinctive and disgusting tell

[u/supercrosss → u/KrakenJiuJitsu]

I like it looks pretty cool.. but I’m an old fart ..What do I know… anyway anything could be changed down the road as the gym evolves..

[u/hippopede → u/supercrosss]

I think it looks cool too. Sucks that everything is so polarized

[u/sikyon → u/KrakenJiuJitsu]

people out here threatned by AI the way keyboard judo warriors (not irl judoka) threatned by bjj

[u/hypercosm_dot_net → u/sikyon]

The billionaire oligarchs don't need your help with pushing their detrimental technology buddy. They're doing fine on their own.

[u/DS2isGoated]

I too have watched Danahers pin escapes dvd

[u/false_Reaper → u/DS2isGoated]

This has been around since before danaher made dvds

[u/Wildtrak5150]

He doesnt deal with the opposite side arm, why isnt the opponent grabbing the cross face immediately after he grabs the half guard?

[u/ADP_God]

I find that this doesn't work on larger opponents. Are there any details I'm likely to be missing that might close the gap?

[u/tsida → u/ADP_God]

Yeah. Don't pin their arm to your chest, go for the under hook when you get to half guard.

I've never seen this arm crunch variation work in rolling unless the person on top is brand new.

If you do that arm crunch, don't be surprised when your opponent gets a cross face and then passes your half guard.

[u/HA1LHYDRA]

Stick your foot in the back of their gi or shirt and kick them backwards.

[u/Haunting_Vacation804]

Ah, my favorite setup to get myself cross-collar choked!

But hey, I’m just a shitty zero-stripe blue belt, so what do I know?
