The Hangmen: Using 10th Planet with the Gi

[Clayton]

Sprawl also makes some gi pants that have the same innovations they use in their shorts.

Ari, Yeah I like the idea of the hangmen, I train at alliance and the jiujitsu there is 90% gi, yet I try to incorporate 10th planet style as much as possible. Jon that would be great if you could make a video on that technique, thanks in advance.

I'm definitely game for the Hangmen idea as well. I've been working on adapting 10pjj stuff to the gi for a while now. Some of it works great, some of it I'm still working on.

Awesome idea Ari! I own 10th Planet Portland,but teach Gi for 2 Team Quest locations.Eddies techniques are constantly flowin when my Gi is on!!Just taught a Twister side set up,to a Jacare collar choke today!

That's actually not it Josh. I know what your talking about though. Let me try to see if I can explain it better. Your not opening up the lapel behind their neck. You break your opponent down and then untuck their lapel out from under their belt on their back. Then take the bottom of their lapel and pull it diagonal across their back beside their neck. This will keep their posture broken down. Your hand should be in a chill dog type position, but instead of grabbing your leg, you are grabbing the bottom of their lapel. Hope that makes sense.
I'll make a vid if you guys want. I'm not expert on the technique though, just something I'm playing around with.

Jon, you need to make that video soon, cuz that sounds awesome!!! I've never seen it before or even heard of it... Make a video and email it to me!!!

[michael craig]

he did a gi submission on me last week this sounds like it,,,if it is it was very effective and tight..

[Daniel Patrick]

Would really appreciate it if someone could post a video of this.

[Jon Helton]

I'll try to do a vid this week sometime. Just fyi I'm not a gi guy. It's just something I mess with.

[Ian Endicott]

Just don't use my rash guard as a gi, please. They're expensive, and rip easily when people do that.
