Who pioneered spiral guard? I have seen that Yukinori Sasa, Yuki Nakai, and more recently the Mendes Bros all have instructional DVDs for spiral guard, but I don't know who pioneered this guard. So if anyone knows, I would like to know. Thanks. ;)

I don't know the answer, but your sig is hilarious.
Yeah...I don't mean to hijack my own thread but since you said something, now I can't resist...

Hilarious. One of the refs lost his running shoe in the scuffle.
Gene Lebell has been doing spiral guard for decades.
Spiral is just reverse De La Riva right?
Gene LeBell has never had to be in any guard!
In Reverse De La Riva Guard, you cup the heel with your hand. In spiral guard, you underhook the front foot.

I'm pretty sure it is just reverse de la riva. At least that's what guys are calling it. Like Lovato.
