My half guard absolutely sucks. These techniques are awesome but I would have no chance of pulling them off. Half guard for me is a terrible position.
Awesome, most of the techniques are pretty much self explanatory as well which is even better I'm making a note right now to drill that calf slicer and kimura tonight
All these moves assume you have achieved underhook and are on your side. I seem to find my self flattened and can't get the underhook because my opponent is laying on top of me. Where can I find options for that position?
@captainzorikh You should focus on getting on your side and not being flat on you back before anything then. If you do not, your half guard game will definitely suffer.
@jasculs I guess that's the whole trick, then. What do I need to learn to help me get on my side when my opponent is keeping me pinned, flat on my back, with no room to turn over or squeeze in a leg under the belly or get the underhook?
@captainzorikh Don't let them get your back to the mat to start :) Seriously though, for me at least, the first thing I do when I land in half guard is deny the cross face by going thumb in with my top-side hand into the opposite lapel, then blocking the arm. This helps to keep distance by building a strong frame. From there, you can start to work for the underhook and using all of the GREAT positions Mr. Scully is outlining in the vid! Good luck! OSSS!
those shin sweeps are pretty neat :) but as awesome as this guy's advanced moves are, I can tell he doesn't spend as much time perfecting his fundamentals when looking at such masters like Caio Terra - another half-guard specialist - and I think it probably makes the difference between them.
also i've already showed 1 or 2 ppl at my school ur 55 closed guard tech vid and they liked it. im gonna make it a point to show my instructor, i'm sure he'd appreciate them
man...i REALLY like all your vids....like seriously these are just really good reference videos that showcase alot of options from a few positions in a way that really gets me thinking more about those psotions. if there was a place i felt i didn't have as many options from so i never worked on it well now i do lol. i mean these vids are really good at getting you to think about sub's of course, but really alot of control
If you would be interested in a DVD version of these techniques with much more additional details along with specific set-ups and much more please like this post to keep it up top.
Good stuff. Half guard is my main thing. One question: what is your counter if the guy on top hugs your legs and sprawls? I use a Kimura, but it doesn`t always work.
I'll be watching it for the first time in about five minutes, but I already know it will be fucking awesome. Thanks for the great stuff and keep them coming! I will post it on mmanews.pl
Your videos are really great! Seeing all these many options in quick succession are making it easy for me to select a few to incorporate. Have you thought about making each one an animated GIF? I know that's a lot of work but I had to ask.
