Good details, at lot of guys try this and fuck it up.
Yep that's me, fuck this up ALOT. Appreciate the vid, will keep playing with it.
My most often failure is getting stuck kinda half way where they stay heavy on me and cause their underhook is so deep they get like a 'straight armlock/cutting armbar' kinda thing from the weird position we end up in.
Thanks! Yeah I've recently seen some videos of different "variations" of the Ghost missing these 3 key details. If you're missing those you are seriously going to hamper your success rate.Quote:

I feel like techniques like these that focus on countering momentum and learning the timing of using the opponents energy to fuel your own move is almost key. Do you have any recommendations how to best practice this and maybe other similar techniques?
Chris is it correct to think that without the overhook at the end the uke can force a north-south?
The devil is in the details....thanks Zog!
Create live situational drills out of your problem areas.Quote:

Constructive criticism please! I feel like I may be missing the flow but it's something I'm trying to work on. If you know how best to work on this like say an example drill please let me know!
Thanks :)
Before you even start live drills or attempting it rolling you need to fix your shrimp crawl/hip escape:Quote:

Without really putting work into a good shrimp you are going to have huge problems with escapes period, not just the Ghost.
So many guys try this from flat on their back. Look at the angle Zog creates in his vid.
I've been taught to bridge and shrimp is this just another way or no bridging for the technique?
I thought I made a point to be on my side what exactly am I missing?
I'll definitely put some work into my shrimps and focus on the trap door concept on my next training session, thanks a lot for this!
I've seen several variations of the shrimping over the years, some are far more efficient than othersQuote:

cool little flow form the Ghost to the Spectre (reverse ghost) to the truck:
