Josh Hinger, black belt from Atos, recently beat AJ at American Nationals.
Yep, guys a stud.
"Why can't we be friends"
He's def good. Does anyone know if he has trained at a 10th Planet in the past?
He is a beast. He trained and competed in my area (Indiana) for a while. Definitely a guy to watch out for! He has one of the nastiest guillotines around!
Guy's a beauty. Josh Passini rolled with him after a tournament. Dude's super legit. Tough as fuckin nails that guy!
Guy kind of seemed to have come out of nowhere at black belt, or am I just out of the loop?
Very impressive on the mat, sounds like he has been busy with school and work so a real well rounded individual.
He is one my instructors at Atos right now. Super nice guy and definitely really skilled on the ground. I knew he hit a twister a few times so I just started to look him up, and I see that he is using 10th Planet stuff pretty heavy in competition. I was just wondering if he was ever training at an actual Moon or not. Who taught him the details etc.
Very cool and well rounded dude for sure. I'd say he sort of came out of nowhere on the black belt competition scene. He was wrecking local tournaments as a brown belt around Indiana so I knew of him from that but he only recently got his black belt (within the last year or so).Quote:

You will eventually hit a situation where your opponent drives forward on you while you're trying to force it and it will twist the shit out of your knee. Or you can even twist it with your own strength.
But that aside, great 10p game. These vids are all from 2010 though, is he still competing often/using 10p? Anyone have video of the recent AJ match?

Thanks for the advice, sir! ...I have a torn meniscus in one knee right now and something up with the other as well. Last thing I need is a knee popping again. I'll try to get some more info on why he started using the 10th Planet system and if he still incorporates it in his game.Quote:

One of my blue belts, Nick Birgel, trained under him for a few years..
He came by 10th Planet Boulder a month or so ago and smashed me and Nick.
That Hingertine is no joke! He hit it from everywhere. Kept trying to go to the saddle.... hingertine. Rolling kimura... hingertine. And so on and so on
Any video of what this is? Searched youtube and couldn't find it.Quote:

He pulls your head with his left hand like a snap down in to a guillotine, but he pulls your head so your throat goes straight on to his right hand cupping your throat with the ridge of his hand. At least he tried that on me a few times. I don't remember exactly but when he did it to me I am pretty sure it just turned in to a regular (really tight) guillotine as I tried to defend. Everyone at the gym says how good his guillotine is and from what I'm reading here, a lot of other people do as well. One thing I know is that he doesn't use the Marcelotine (high elbow guillotine). I asked him and he said he just doesn't like it for his guillotines. He's a really nice guy though and very knowledgeable. I'm stoked to train with him!
So is he always arm in? Or is his variation with the arm out too/work with the arm out?Quote:

I remember this guy. We have a couple 6 min rounds right before NoGi Worlds. His game reminded me a lot of JT Torres's game and when he said he was Atos SD it all made sense. Good guy for sure.
He's a sick black belt from Atos under Andre Galvao.
