Which book is this sweep covered in? I have all three of the Books, tried to quickly find it, but didn't see it.
I coach taught it the other night, and I knew about it before, but I didn;t realize how beautifully it would compliment my game.
So, book and page please?
Thanks.
I think it was originally introduced during one of Einstein's Peterborough seminars, so it may not be in a book. Cannot confirm nor deny.
I have all three of Eddie's books too, and I can't see it in there anywhere. Don't think its in any of his books
Eddie has 4 books: Jiu Jitsu Unleashed, Mastering the Twister, Mastering the Rubber Guard, and Advanced Rubber Guard. I may be mistaken, but to me it seems that the mechanic was originally the "Plan B" sweep, as the description of the "Plan B" is practically identical, minus the explanation of the grip around the wrist (still describes the arm pinch on the overhook though).
Edit: I don't know. Maybe the Plan B and Mechanic are different moves actually. Bah.
You fixed it with your edit. Plan B is available from a ton of positions and essentially is rolling them over you when they resist whatever Plan A is. From lockdown, you go for EC and they resist, Plan B. Dogfight they resist Half and Half? Plan B.Quote:

Yea, I know what the mechanic is, I just swore I remembered seeing it in a book and tried validating my memory to no avail ;)
Check the Technique guide. To search, just press CTRL + F while on the page.Quote:
