Vinny Magalhaes (Ultimate Fighter finalist and BJJ Black Belt) shows how to get the omoplata from the z mount. Notice how aggressive Vinny pulls in order to get his opponent on his belly

  • random question here, what are some of the benefits to tenth planet jj

  • @HordeFTW111 Come on over to the main 10th Planet site and look around and ask there bro. The forum is a much better place to do it than a you tube video ;-)

  • Why doesn't everyone just call this by it's true name: Ude hishigi ashi garami. Also, the traditional way to execute this would be to cross your feet "Indian" style, then applying pressure. Jujutsu is Japanese not Brazillian.

  • @gixxerdeddy There is no traditional way to execute things...only variations...that is what makes bjj a great art.BJJ took much of its game from Judo (more so than traditional jujutsu ryuha) and pushed it in a different direction. As a JJJ instructor myself, it is plainly obvious the differences between JJJ, Judo and BJJ. I would never be so bold as to say that one is the other-it simply isn't true. There are many mores in BJJ that are NOT found in JJJ and vice versa.

    Well, Omo plata means shoulder blade in portuguese. Kimura is called Kimura because of the Judo master that beat Helio Gracie. Not all that many names to keep track of. It's worse in 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu, where every little damn body movement needs to have some funky name. New York, Chill Dog, Zombie, Kung Fu move, Mission control, Stoner, Jiu Claw, Gangsta Lean, Carni, Track Stance, Hang up, Meat Hook, Douche Bag, Spider Web, Electric Chair..

    Good luck learning all those.

  • @brottarnacke It is actually pretty easy to remember the 10th planet names. It is also nice to have each position named rather than saying "Do that move which is just before the omoplata but you are on your side trying to get it." Saying Jiu Claw works wonders when you don't want to spend hours explaining shit ;-)

see all

  • whoa he kinda looks carlos menstealia but he seems like better person

  • In the omoplata submission, couldn't you also just grab both hands around the opponent's head and pulling up, causing excruciating pain to the opponent's shoulder, arm, neck, and head.

  • @gixxerdeddy So, let me ask, is that folding my feet east Indian style or west Indian style. I need to know where it came from to make it work right? Will it work if I fold my feet native American style? STFU!

  • @Klootjee Damn our stupid what? Learn to write in English. Nobody gives a shit here what you call your wooden shoes there.

  • @gixxerdeddy I can show you ancient Egyptian illustrations of moves virtually identical to "Judo". I don't give a fuck where it comes from originally, only that it works. Nobody cares what you call it, your "traditional" approach is just silly.

  • @gixxerdeddy well.... you guys call wooden shoes wooden shoes but it are ''klompen'' in the netherlands its dutch not english.... damn your stupid

  • @DracoPateta ;-)

  • @DracoPateta God, you're like the greek father-in-law in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". LMAO!!

  • @brottarnacke

    my comment is pretty useless in the conversation but i ll added anyways ....omo plata is not a portuguese word but comes from the greek words omos(shoulder) and plati(upper back)...

  • Getting taped in United States, Brazil, Japan, or Russia. Doesnt matter where it came from, your still getting tapped and it all hurts the same way.
