That's pretty smooth...
Doesn't look realistic
pretty damn creative for 2 little kids...gotta give em props... but not protecting your heel in 50/50 is a good way to get your knee torn to shreds. Then again these kids cant do heel hooks in their divisions either so its probably not a concern for them ;) Agree with Brent...not all that realistic.
Thanks for the input guys. This is why I bring stuff on here to see the top dog's opinions. It looks cool. But I guess it's more flashy than practical.
I think it's difficult to keep secure wrist control in no-Gi...especially when sweat becomes a factor etc. I certainly wouldn't bet my knee on it. Also...if you expose your heel an go for wrist control I'm not letting you get anywhere near my arms/wrists. I'm kicking the shit out of your shoulders to keep you back while I finish. Just doesn't seem worth the risk to me...especially vs. higher level 50/50 players. To put it in context though...I think it's bad ass these 2 kids came up with this on their own and it could be useful in divs where you can't heel hook. I like the move...the risk/reward just isn't there for me when heel hooks are in play.
Thats pretty bad ass that these kids are so into jiu-jitsu they are coming up with creative ass moves like that.
I hate rat-tails :mad:
I could see it going very badly as well, but MAD MAD MAD PROPS for 8 year olds coming up with moves :)
As long as you are attacking that wrist I think it's totally possible, although I could be horribly wrong, but I'm really thinking that it could work. In 50/50 I always attack that wrist and it appears that all you need is to be able to control it for a second, it doesn't look like you need to control it for 10 seconds or anything like that. I hope it pans out, either way those twins are gonna be monsters if pussy doesn't cripple them :)
Man jitsu kids are the best, I sware the best matches at NAGA Chicago were in the kids and teens divisions. The kids coming up in the system and around the world's rate of growth and potential is so high and they are fulfilling it, it's very awesome and exciting, and also a little scary because they are coming for us when they get into the adults divisions ;D
It's cute.
We tried to see if it would work yesterday, with a full-grown man's weight and him actively looking for the heel you can't realistically do the whole roll safely. Unless I'm missing something, or my whole berimbolo style rolling under sucks shit, I wouldn't bet anything on this move. Cool to see kids being creative though.
Freaking awesome
Looks slick for sure. If you dont have to worry about the cross body heel hook then it looks like an option. But say Im properly in the 50/50 and I cross my fee or triangle my legs, wont that completely shut this move down? Cause when I lock my feet, that locks up your hips and takes away the mobility to do a move like this.
I think the rat tail is so you can tell them apart.
Pussy almost derailed me recently. Too expensive always want'n to go out and do shit. If your on your game, you should be to tired for that. Unless you've already made it. Then theres nothing to derail.
Im gonna have to try it too. Seems like it would work fine if the guy just props back on his right hand and lets you do it. When all limbs get involved, its gonna look alot different. We'll see.
I think its fantastic what these kids have come up with and Im sure with some practice, at the very least, would create a scramble enough to at the least, get the hell out of trouble in 50/50.
Eddie....you're so fucking funny man! If pussy doesn't cripple them!! LOL
