All of Ryan Hall's sets are excellent. If you have to start with one, make it the Arm Triangles set or maybe the Back Attacks set.
Saulo has 3 different 6 DVD sets: Jiu Jitsu Revolution 1 & 2, and then Freestyle Revolution, which is no gi. All excellent, but Jiu jitsu Revolution 1 is the best.
Demian Maia has 2 great sets called Science of Jiu Jitsu. They're can't miss.
Eduardo Telles Turtle Guard set is great.
Marcelo Garcia has a set (I think his 4th one?) that is no gi and covers the Omoplata for 4 discs. Also 1 disc on his Guillotine and one on the Crucifix.
I don't have many, but my favorite....and I'm pretty sure I'm speaking without bias.....my favorite is mastering the twister. Everything from the quality of instruction to the quality of the production is spot on.
Second favorite, and a great bargain, is Bill Cooper's escapes DVD. That DVD has saved my ass soooo many times. I know this sounds crazy, but I haven't been triangled once since learning his triangle escape.
Do you have any holes in your game or particular interests?Quote:

BMac already said my suggestions but Id add Reilly's Top Rock DVD
I have a huge collection of Jiu Jitsu dvds ...as any Ronin should :cool:... Andre Galvao, Mike Fowler, Robson Moura, Pablo Popovitch, Marcus Almedia, Rigan Machado Robert Drysdale & Roy Dean all have some excellent Nogi DVDs available....Roberto Abrea's Nogi Tornado Guard, Raefael Lovato Jr's Nogi Pressuring Passing & David Avellan's Kimura Trap System are my current faves...Belchers Immunity MMA is good quality instruction but low quality video that being said the submissions from bad positions/truck series bonus disc is worth the price of the whole package...also just received Jason Scully's Invisible Grappling dvds today have yet to watch them though...
A Rickson nogi DVD would rule :)
Dont have a big library but I really like Karo Parisyan Judo for Mixed Martial Arts
and
Igor Yakimov Russian Leg Locks.
Alan Belcher's Immunity to leg locks is very good. Robert Drysdale has some good ones, as well.
Hell yes it would. I wonder why Rickson never put out an instructional set?Quote:

If I'm suggesting stuff to improve your game, that depends on your game.. Lol. There's some good stuff out there covering mount control and attacks and transitions. Not a huge fan of what most people call "escapes". People showing you what to do with a fully sunk triangle and whatnot.. If he has a flawless sub, you don't escape. How about prevention, and deterrence. Just a white belt's 2 cents, take it for what it's worth. (Which is probably less than 2 cents)
