I just started taking backs from closed guard every roll, with spider guard on one side and a duck under to the other side this opens up a world of possibilies for back takes and attacks!

Wow, iv been using the half guard octopus guard and it's my bread and butter, this is the first time seeing it from closed guard tho I'm so excited to start trying it. You went over all the problems iv been going through except for sometimes during the half guard octopus guard when I go to get my butterfly hooks in, they will squeeze my legs and I can't fish them out . Definitely going to troubleshoot this more

I've been finding myself in this position a lot lately (the half guard variation). I usually get there when the top guy overcommits to the crossface. The hip bump seemed like a natural thing to do, but then I remembered that I'd seen this video, probably a year ago if not more. Looks like there are a lot more options from there than I thought. Thanks again for the great content!

@errcoche 6 жыл бұрын

Check out Firas Zahabi and Oliver ( Ollie Geddes ) who show the half guard octopus position in detail. I have had a back take from when the top guy shows you his back from half guard that has always worked even with guys my belt level ( purple ) but this series is an attack rather than a response to an attack. I have been having a lot of success with the hip bump and the Geddes details on the back take ( the inexorable back take ) are great.

@errcoche 6 жыл бұрын

Watching the video through, Brandon goes into a lot of detail on half guard too but still, watch them all. Geddes has an alternative suggestion on the use of the far leg than the butterfly hook. I have used both.

@andrejpetrovic8240 5 жыл бұрын

There is just one move that I like, the rest I would do it a little differently. When I do that twister looking entry I would reach for his right arm and hold his head down with my armpit and I would pin him in that position then I would little by little go for the back. i think that if you move so fast with no contact, presure and control, the oponent WILL escape.

I've been using your Half-Octopus Backtake sequence for about a month now. Love it. However, I'm getting killed when people switch their hips (like reverse side-control) before I fully sit-up. Even smaller guys are able to keep me pinned down there. Any tips?

@thos1618 7 жыл бұрын

Will do. Thanks. Have you seen "Yuri Simoes Beltgrip Backroll"? It's the same position, but with the belt grip and pretty much captures the same concepts and techs. Cool to see the Gi/Nogi crossover.
