10th Planet Watch – 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Van Nuys Blog

The guys at ESB (Eat, Sleep, Breathe) Jiu Jitsu show’s how they do 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu in the ATL.

Brandon Quick shows the basics of getting to the Dogfight position from half guard. There’s some nice details in here. This is a basic move, but sometimes the finer points are overlooked.

Who said the South ain’t progressive.

Jared is a stud, I’m looking forward to watching his fight. He’s got great Jiu Jitsu and insane flexibility. It should be a great fight.

A quick clip from Eddie “The Twister” Bravo’s DVD

I’m not going to go too deep into this. I see too many glaring issues. This counter might work on a parallel universe’s rubber guard. It might even work on Robert Drysdale’s rubber guard. But, I’m not certain it would work quite as well against an opponent who performs rubber guard correctly though.

I found this counter on Mixedmartialarts.com, it’s from Straight Blast UK. The biggest beef I have is that when he grabs his leg to begin the counter, he has good posture. If the lockdown is being done correctly, you’ve stretched out your opponent, and taken away their base.

Another problem I can foresee is, when he breaks the lockdown, and tries to come back on top, it doesn’t seem like he can keep good control. This would cause a scramble and at that point it’s anybody’s game. 

I do like the usage of sunglasses however.

 

Another Jerome Basillio technique.

Scott shows us how to pass from the open guard into Twister Side Control. As an extra bonus he shows us how to tip toe mount. Everybody knows I don’t like Scott as a person, he’s hurt my feelings on multiple occasions. I still support his Jiu Jitsu however. I really like his dogs too.
