    What is the move corbinia is doing ?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrBCSFVd6VI

    He does it couple times to radar...at .34 4:48 is a good example... it looks like as if he took a page out of the inverted half guard against standing oppenents?

    haha "corbinia."

    robbie, he is working what some call reverse de la riva / spiral guard / caio's guard. there are a couple of go-to moves from there where you can spin under to take the back or control your opponent's legs to sweep like he did in that vid. i'm pretty alright with the move to the back but i can't speak much about the other stuff from there.

    caio terra's half-guard DVD covers a bunch of stuff off of that position if you're really interested

    hope that helps

    The Atos guys (Mendes Bros, Andre Galvao, Davi Ramos, Bruno Frazzato, Rodrigo Caporal, Claudio Calasans, etc.) like to call it the Beijo de Dragao, or the Kiss of the Dragon.

    It's a reverse De La Riva guard AKA Spiral guard cutting underneath into a back-take.

    Cobrinha does it all the time to take the back or sweep. It's probably his most famous no-gi guard attack. He took swept Nakamura with it and took Joel Tudor's back with it at ADCC 2009. He went for it a lot against Rafa Mendes too.
