Sambo Techniques - Low Single Leg Takedown

[dulaney1124]

Seriously this is just a regular low single the only faw in the way he teaches is that he has the trail leg extended instead of bringin it back in tward the body

[Mamylife]

great video, thank you for sharing. I find this move very effective, even in real life

[stf092]

no offense...but it's completly useless...not to mention you would get your ass kicked in a sec,all the guy has to do is to back down or just smack you with his knees...the moment you get down you're WAY to open for an attac...one should never take his guard down...not to mention his eyes of his oponent.

[andrewrebullar]

Is that fed or

[SammyFloydWals]

how about the other one kicking you in the face?

[alan513]

I have never seen technique like this b4, can head really push off balance of inner knee. thx for video, world is so big and unknown. wheres sambo from? russia?

[OSCARA320]

Is that guy Eddie Stone??

[mickbutlermma1]

he does not use a penetrating step,therefore all of his projectortory goes thru his knee instad of the oppenents leg

[lightfedora]

Would this work on a bigger opponent?

[keops22]

so this was randy coutures game plan!!

thanks for the video

[fireguysith]

can you say Tekken 6 Dragunov's u/f 3+4? LOL.

[Kenny1968]

GREAT instruction!! For those that think this shoot isn't practical just look at Sakuraba..

[Aspartan3]

moves like these are easier said then done in real life.

[DiveHiryu]

Yeah, I agree. Any martial art can be effective. I think it's up to the person to decide what can be used practically for themselves. Grappling, striking, it doesn't matter. I practice styles of both or mixed but I prefer to submit my training partners so I don't hurt them. It's whatever the preferences of the user in my opinion.

Thanks for the video. = ). I don't know if I'll be able to pull it off but it doesn't hurt to know it. = ).

[richboy13387]

wow nice technique. Im gonna practise that one, thanks SJJASambo

[sidemount69]

tecnically incorrect.Lacks of detail,and easy to counter for any freestyle wrestler with few monts of practice.If you wont to learn takedowns go in olimpic wrestling club.

[SJJASambo]

interesting comments. can you clarify how it is technically incorrect?

most basic wrestling takedowns are easy to counter (eg double leg can be countered easily with sprawl after 1 lesson! that doesnt make it useless)

And olympic wrestling has its benefits, but it depends what you want. If you want olympic wrestling...go to an olympic wrestling club. if you want judo go to judo. if you want sambo etc. if you dont want to learn sambo takedowns then don't. It doesnt make them invalid.

[sidemount69]

1 the only part of the head sing in low single are the forehead,not the side of the head 2 the position of the knee is alwais in front of the feet of your opponent 3 the rear leg alwais move togheter with your head 4the entrys is always parallel at the floor.the use of the kurtka maybe make different this tecnique but if you don't wearing the wrestling style is much better.bye by olimpic wrestling coach

[SJJASambo]

Thanks for your time in responding.

A kurtka doesnt make this takedown different. But olympic wrestling is not sambo which is not Indian Kushti which is not judo which is not greco etc.

Compare 3 different ways to throw a punch - eg a right cross (western boxing/karate style/wing chun style) they all have different methods of entry & delivery. Which is right if they all work? which is wrong?

Why criticise one because you prefer another?

[1TSJ0E]

3 time all american and former ncaa national champ gregor Gillespie taught me this takedown yesterday... he used that side of his head like you did. obviously his instruction was bound to be a little bit better since its his favorite takedown.... but yours is correct and well done

[1TSJ0E]

but try to keep your head up the whole time and use your second hand to maintain balance rather than to take the other leg... one is enough to take him down

[sidemount69]

vincenzo maenza 2 time gold olimpians medali and vincenzo maenza 2008 olimpic gold medal when teaching freestyle(olimpic italian team train both freestyle and greco).teach the side of the head consent the defense of opponent..

[mizdierbeatz]

@SJJASambo are dissing wrestling? that is exactly where this style of single came from.

[SJJASambo]

lol @ internet know-it-alls

no one is dissing wrestling

[Lejendary2]

@SJJASambo the technique for the low single is right. I have no idea what the hell they're going on about. And feet INFRONT of your opponents while doing a single? He's full of shit and trolling

[MoXHoRbIL]

Great Answer : )

[katocujokoa]

@SJJASambo ....very good point

[sidemount69]

note:the sprawl is the last and baddest defense for any takedown because you have failed in the first line of defense:the head and body positioning in relaction of your opponent.Also the Three foundamental tecniques of wrestling single double and high crotch ore often almost impossible to counter if the opponent working with the propes setup and tieups.

[AyrtonSennaFan97]

@SJJASambo Can you make a video on how to counter an osoto-gari? People always do it to me at school and it pisses me off!

[rutturu]

it doesnt work? tell that to sakuraba. This is similar to an ankle pick but where an enkle pick takes you down because you want to protect you from a kneebar motion this takes you down because you want to protect your knee from bending in a lateral motion (even more dangerous than a kneebar).

[sidemount69]

sakuraba has the same opportunity to takedown an olimpic wrestler like the same opportunity to ko a prof,boxer in a boxing contest...............

[kickpusher88]

i agree man. basic wrestling is some of the best grappling.

[Layedo]

would never work, sorry to say. this technique sucks.

[neosamurai]

Sakuraba disagree's!
