i have a feeling theres a thread about this already but ...fuggggit

:-D

im TOTALLY DOWN for learning ANY new moves as crazy as they are as TANGLED GUARD thats one less position I have to learn =D and ONE MORE position I ADD to my arsenal of tricks =D

[Andrew Maxwell]

Tangled Guard has already been looked at and found to be impractical in another thread awhile back

[Andy Lopez]

^ care to explain please because this looks pretty cool and effective.

[Andrew Maxwell]

If I remember correctly it was because you pass up to many other higher percentage opportunities getting into this guard. It was looked at and critiqued by a few of 10th Planet's higher ranks. It's been about a year ago so I'm not possitive on all of the specifics.

[Andy Lopez]

I see your point. None the less its and interesting approach

[Andrew Maxwell]

Watch the video and you can see he passes up a triangle to get the tangled guard. Why pass a chance at submission up?

I've yet to try tangled guard but it looks legit. People expect triangles. Nobody would expect that shit. Low percentage or not it doesn't hurt to know.

Vid of catching it live rolling against game opponent out there? doubt it.

There is an article on No-Gi-Grappling.com where Shap talks about this. Cool stuff.
