that's a decent one but there isn't a better dummy then the one from dummiesunlimited.com!!! Believe me, it's the best... PERIOD!!! But the one you have would definitely be my next choice... I have done countless hours of research on this subject & dummiesunlimited is where it's at...Quote:

The sex dummy is pretty hot, they'd be so much less trouble than a wife or girlfriend, the conversation would be better, Atm's would be as standard and your butterfly work would get awesomely sticky. Anyway back to a serious response, I can only get to training once a week so most of my training is done with my grappling dummy. I think you can learn a fair bit with the grappling dummy, obviously not ideal, but better than nothing.
Grappling dummies are quite easy to make, I made mine for around £40, it is poseable and is great for practicing the squeeze in all positions. my girlfriend just came down and read this and now has the sulks. That doll is looking more beautiful by the minute.
Nice feedback :) Thanks everyone, definitely helps me to weigh my options, I think I'm going to save up for one and eventually buy one but not in the immediate future.
i been wanting to a get a grappling dummy for a long time now , its tough to find people willing to practice things , plus there are other technigues you want to try out in secret so when rolling you can suprise your fellow students on the mat , i will probably get one soon cause i want it to supplement my training i want to improve on some techniques i been sloppy with

Simply the best!!! This is where my money will be going...
Can you guys tell me what these cost? I don't want to have to fill in their forms to get a quote and, undoubtedly, reams of spam from them.
You can always call them man... I think the quote varies on where you live... I live in south Alabama (USA) & they quoted me like $740 something w/ shipping & everything.... I think it's worth it because I'm a night owl & when I'm not at the school training I'll be up til 4 or 5 in the morning thinking about techniques & having no one to drill with... At least then I could get some reps, practice my squeeze & develop one hell of a knee on belly... Not to mention I could probably exert enough energy to finally get to sleep... It's bad when you bridge & thread the needle to turn over from your left side to your right & even worse when you end up shrimping yourself back up into a comfortable position on you pillows... LoL..
The grapple man is not the best because his arms wont stay in a position they flop around and if you want something for striking get a Body Opponent Bag I have the Xl version and its awesome. The best Grappling Dummy is found at grapplingdummy.net the site Shelby brought up. This submission master grappling dummy would be the best for 10th planet reps. I also took time to find the best grapple dummy never bought one though decided to just look for more sparring partners. Its was to expensive to have it shipped to canada thats why I initially decided against it. Thats my opinion do what ever works best for you though.
