Wilson Bros. Grappling

High ground games

Some eco nerds have asked for games to play. Connection/chest to back, base/chest to back, wash cycle.

Darce setups

ADHD rant on random darce setups, enjoy.

Troubleshooting chest-kick guards

Grips/scramble scenarios to think about while passing from your knees. These ideas came up while Marcus cornered our friend Mo Black at the last trials. Chest/neck kicks seem to be a rising technique used to off-balance passing from the knees. Fun game to play.

Side smash pass

Over/under pass defense

Over/under passing series

More mount tricks

Simple tricks from top mount to secure submissions/positional dominance. Gi & nogi options.

IBJJF Japan Breakdown

Marcus hits another fancy brabo choke.

ADCC Trials Breakdown

Marcus runs through a finish from trials, triangle dilemmas that we covered last week.

Trick round | Gi

Marcus in the jammies. Armbar, fancy brabo, etc.

Grime rolls

Jon vs old dudes. Good dudes, but old. Rnc, high ground darce, darce, etc.

Sunday Sparring

Marcus vs black belt, Marty vs Asa, Marty vs Lucca, Marty vs Tyrell. Arm triangle (bulldog style?), inside heel hook, knee bar, Marty-condas, smesh, & the infamous ramshackle.

Scottish twister troubleshooting

Grime goes over his Scottish twister. General thoughts, refined finishing mechanics, and keeping their fingers out of your mouth.

Diagonalfix-ation

Grimy covers some diagonalfix concepts. Keep in mind, this position is very powerful and unorthodox, however it is generally transitory.

Mount escape techniques

Trick covers some bottom mount escape concepts (not kipping related). “Boring” stuff, but solid concepts/movements to turn the tide.

Outside single defense

Big concept idea here: find your spots, no matter what. Forcing outside single/dogfight, escape, spin, back takes, reverse pivot, side triangle, crucifix, Irish necktie.

Ducks for dummies

Quack quack fellers. Easy steps to develop your duck game. Level changes and head paths are priority.

Shin to shin sweep | Gi

Trick goes over a position from his most recent IBJJF competition. Covering his basic ideas/movements and mid-match adaptations based on opponent’s reactions.

Week 36 | Sparring Part 2

Jon vs Damien, David, & Tyrell. Grimy gets grimy. Bullshit and nonsense, RNCy no hooks, reverse kimura, weird back takes, twister, and Tyrell being annoying and good.

Week 36 | Sparring

Marcus vs Andrew & Jon. Marcus positionally dominates 2 black belts, no prob.

Triangle setup | De la riva

Marcus goes over another one of his triangle setups from ADCC trials.

Triangle setup | Half ground

Marcus covers his triangle/mount step he used at ADCC trials.

Broomstick sweep | Gi

Do you even broomstick? Highly underrated movement for sweeps, scrambles, takedown reversals, etc.

F1 grip | Back control concepts

Kimura trap back takes, elbow to elbow grip, automatics, etc.

CJJ Breakdown | EBI

Grimy vs Usma. Duck, F1, figure 4, diagonalfix, Scottish twister, fish hook, outside single spin, RNC.

Sparring Breakdown | CJJ Camp

Grimy vs Asa. Catpaw, single leg snatches, figure 4/mount control, high ground darce (Iranian), front head back takes, automatics, trips & picks, turtle hunting, etc.

WBG comp part 2 | Warmup/games

Grimy comp prep warmup. Games:

Ducks & drags - easy way to build initiations from the feet, and find secondary attacks.

Front headlocks & power singles/doubles - this game focuses mainly on breaking opponent’s posture to create angles/openings & chest to back connection.

Top/bottom leg entanglements - escape, counter, & apply pressure over time.

Double seated leg entanglements - shootouts with the homies for funsies.

Reverse omaplata orientation

Answering a comment on the preference between Brad Schneider crucifix leg orientation and WBG. Knees on mat vs. knees towards ceiling.
