Well hears my Review!
so i order it 3 days before christmas and got 2 day shipping it came in four... oh well... it was so worth the wait, some great stuff on hear and if you don't have a copy yet, i suggest you pick one up
it is broken down into 3 disks
disk 1-half guard/butterfly guard
disk 2-rubber guard
disk 3-spider web
disk 1 helped a ton, atleast the first half for me, my half guard game sucked, i had 1 or 2 sweeps to get to basic guard or another few to set up butterfly, my butterfly was already strong it's a fundamental thing for gracies to work on, but i picked up 1 or 2 things here
i really liked the powder keg, the tepee and the dogfight.... but i just never had the knowlege of the whipup before, it is great and gives you sooo many oppurtunities for subs or sweeps, this will really improve your half guard game!
disk 2 for me was easily the best, it is the reason i got the dvd, i had little/no RG game before i got the DVD, now i feel like a champ and love using it in the 5 times i've rolled since i got the dvd
this one's gonna be long because theres a lot of new stuff for me, starting off, crack head and retard control were a good rest spot to plan out the path to attack, retard is very chill i don't know anything from it but holding, but crack head is a good control with a few subs.... the zombie is new for me, and my favorite position is new york, because it goes just about any where, so the zombie is a quick common way to get new york especially if you roll with people who don't know RG:D none of my partners do, so the zombie is amazing and puts you right to new york...night of the living dead and the exhumer are a few tricks to get you were the zombie will put you and that is leaving your opponent with the hand on the mat
now going to putting hands on your own stomach and attacking the arms etc... from here you have the pump (gets you there) the duda (attacks the arms) the croc and the east coast croc (a switch both do similar things/on opposite sides) so there are a few subs i probably forgot, but those are the ones i have nailed so far from when your opponent has wrist on your chest
rubber guard going from mission control i like set ups in new york to chill dog, then going for 1 of many things, jiu claw, omoplata, invicible collar, gogo plata, loco plata, the DA, the snitch, unwinder, the drowning jiu, fm ankle lock,mad dog, crow bar, carni, invicible collar (vs small man variation), rescue dog, invicible croc and invicible gator, there is just so damn much that you can do and i love it, because they are all set up in new york, if i get my partner in new york it is over, there is sooo many subs, and sweeps from here it's unbelivable what eddie has done with it, you still have higher percentage standard triangle, or standard gogo (eddies gogo from RG is very tight compaired to standard JJ gogo) i feel that the RG has added to my game a lot, i don't know if i will go standard guard again, and if i do it's for class or to use my 6 years of classic GJJ, but a few days of RG makes me feel like if i had 6 years of RG i'd dominate from guard:D
very well put together first and 2nd disk, the top always has some myspace link but it didn't bother me any, and i am on disk 3 and it's a little too complicated for me right now, i have got the swim move down and most regular armbars from the spiderweb and the lock but all the upper level subs and other stuff is too much for 1 day, i am drilling half guard and RG right now, and when i get decent at them i will work more w/ the spiderweb, but for now the RG and HG are great!
any one thinking of buying this DVD... do it, you will learn a lot, if you have no backround in RG or if you've been doing it for years you can brush up or learn a ton of new stuff, i am still learning but just the HG and RG so far was worth the 120 bucks for me, and still have butterfly brush up and the whole spiderweb game to go, i think it is well worth it, and i love seeing all this because i know the basic's of standard GJJ or BJJ but the 10th Planet JJ is off the chain, the stuff works, and it will make you feel dominent off your back GET IT 100$ amazing dvds well worth the buy 9.8 out of 10 (-.2 because the intro makes you watch a fat man drooling over rubber guard:pand because it came a few days late... o well:o ) JK i got some humor out of the big man and it's a decent intro if you listen 10 out of 10 thanks for reading and if you get it enjoy watching!!!
