The entries and some of the hand positions are a bit different, but the sweeps are slick. I'm defiantly going to put some serious work into that leg drag pass.

I like how he wraps the knee and then grips the head for the pass.
Nice! Always been a fan of The Big Dog. :)
Brilliant stuff. I already have Bill Coopers pass from a fake ankle lock in my game, this though, this ties in perfectly with the reaper series. More options, more toys.
Hey Zog, how do you feel about the BJJ guys getting into the leg lock game after talking trash about it for so long? I think this stuff is awesome, but for so long they bashed on leg lock players (Sambo, and Catch guys.) Now they are integrating them into their game which is great! I just don't know how I feel about everyone not acknowledging all the bias that used to exist. Just seems strange I guess.
Great vid though!
I'd really like to hear his reasoning for not taking the underhook as he passes and going to that style of head and arm, other than it possiblely leading to a easier transition to the back,I'd personally opt for the security of the underhook.
I don't sweat it, I always just passed it off as ignorance. I'm glad its evolving, its only going to make all of us better, more complete grapplers. Its going to be fun watching it evolve, little gems like this video will only add to my person game.Quote:

Coolness. Have you seen Renzo Gracie No-Gi instructionals with Ricardo Almeida?
I have those for a long time. Good basic stuff. Does Renzo do a lot of No-Gi at his
New York studio? I met him at ADCC 2005. Really nice guy.

LOve it!
Very nice! More stuff to try and work into the game. I'm so glad my introduction to jitz just naturally included leg locks. Why ignore half of the body? You're an incomplete competitor if you only have two limbs and a neck to attack.
I just got Emily Kwoks DVD set on beating larger opponents. It's a great set and she covers the basics of one leg X-guard, which surprise, is practically a reaper setup. they modify it a bit so that it doesn't break the "reap knee" rulle (toes out) but they've developed the position as a primary sweep rather than a leg lock setup.
It's a really interesting take on the position and I've been playing with it a lot lately.
I got that set too. It's really good.Quote:

Well it was $7.50 for shipping and handling. He gave out something like 500 of them.
Comes out to something like $3,750.
Anyway I have everything Stephan ever made. Omo Plata, Half-Guard, Butterfly Guard,
Knee bars and his All other leglock DVD. All good stuff. 2 discs on Omo Plata. Plus
his seminar DVD I have. He actually gave me a couple of these free for a write up
I did on them.

Very good advise indeed.
You know when you watch a movie when your like eight and it didnt make no damn sense? But then you watch it ten years later(after a leglock camp) and it all makes sense and is a badass movie. Yeah.
That's the best part about jujitsu and MMA, every year my favorite fights just get more and more awesome to watch as I learn more and more.Quote:

Reaching for my hamstring and trapping the knee is already close enough to my muscle memory that it doesn't take much adjustment to ad this sweep. Also, to stand up back in base, you lift their opposite leg with your free instep, grab their ankle with your hand and then stand up in base ready to pass (which again, is already mechanically similar to the sambo leg knot). Or, you can just re-attack with an ankle lock or rolling toe hold (if they don't clear your hand grip on their foot) .
Already, I've hit this sweep on tons of people of all sizes. It's very easy and saves me from getting stalled out from not being allowed to use a heel hook.
Fantastic detailQuote:

Getting thier leg to the inside is not happening by lifting the hips, the reason its working for Almeida in the becasue his parter is on his back knee, no one defending the heisman position is going to stay based on their knee, they will stand, spin, or turn in and pressure. My parterns know that lifting that leg is going to get them heel hook so they are putting weight on and standing. When thats happening "lifting the hips" is not going to get his foot of the mat to move it to the inside, Scott and I have played with alternative ways to get the leg to the inside, most of which seem clumsy at the moment.
However that being said where I have had success with it is when my parnter brings the leg over themselves in an attempt to prevent me from doing "the Sickle" (sweeping them backwards toward their butt) to the knee knot, and they try to step over into knee on the belly on the other side.
Its an awesome addition to what we've been working on, someone sent me this video last summer and we've been playing with it ever since.Quote:
