I tried to watch the techniques, but I kept being distracted by the devilishly handsome bearded bald guy in the background
Seriously, a great refresher of what was taught, and the next camp cannot come soon enough.
Although I feel like sometimes my knee knot is so tight that I might be able to hold it for 30 minutes, I've never had to hold it for longer than 10 seconds because it's pretty much game over at that point. And I say 10 seconds max because my belly always got in the way of my achilles hold and that slowed me down. If I used heel hooks I wouldn't need to hold the knee knot for longer than 3-5 seconds max. Unless you're leg pressing half a ton or greased up like GSP (allegedly), the knee knot is pretty much game over. Knee knot is easily one of my most efficient moves.
BTW, Coach, what ever happened to the "Reap the knee" t shirts. I still want one.

I'm currently in the talks with a MMA Gear company, hopefully I'll hear something after the new year.
Awesome! The way you hook up the knee knot during the roll is so beautiful. This series has always captivated me and I think it will be a big part of my game by the time I can use it in competition. Thank you Coach!
