Ok, this ISN'T a new guard. I basically just call it the 'Wizard Guard' to describe this way of playing guard (and not to mention that I originally thought the 'whizzer' technique was called the 'wizard'). So, moving right along, this guard is based off of maintaining a whizzer on one arm, along with maintaining either wrist, elbow, or neck/face control with your other arm. I guess you could consider it the opposite of Prison Guard. I've been playing with this for a while now and it has provided me quite a bit of success. I give my coach a much better fight while rolling and, on other classmates, have turned triangles and omoplatas into high percentage techniques of mine (outside of the rubber guard of course). It's great because it is a good control for MMA, doesn't require much flexibility and you can easily transition into rubber guard without going through the usual posture battle (still a battle) required for rubber guard.
Here's a couple videos I found to illustrate. What do you guys think???!!!
