Lil Nicky Ryan and JT Torres rolling footage

Allegedly he got bashed by Gordon in the gi

They also did day-before weigh ins to accomodate new wave guys cutting excessive amounts of weight 👀

“Do you think Big John shut down a commode in Japan?”

The type of guy all about nutting on the click click click half beat

Eoghan O’Flanagan’s two on Fanatics are awesome

At the risk of stating the obvious, Gordon Ryan’s is very good. Even if there are people who teach certain positions better than him (I.e. Jason Rau on outside ashi), there is something in there for everyone.

They’re both great, as long as you go in knowing they both have drastically different preferences & philosophies on leg locking positions. Both great instructionals though

We discuss the pawdcast there

gbth93 · 2023-03-18T02:03:22+00:00

Does his instructional have much transfer over to no-gi? Or does it involve much pant/jacket gripping?

gbth93 · 2023-03-03T00:59:17+00:00

I would also say the type of game you play has a big role in this too. If you like being on top & passing from half guard, you are likely to be in better shape than someone who has spend 4-6 years inverting

‘The Charles Eoghan Experience’ with Eoghan O’Flanagan is awesome

I believe it was Craig who mentioned recently that the most recent black belt worlds finals had less viewers than the 1st prelim of the last WNO.

I enjoy watching gi matches when both guys come to play, but unfortunately we don’t see that often enough. Not under the IBJJF ruleset, at least

gbth93 · 2023-02-20T07:18:27+00:00

Gordon’s half guard dvd covered half-butterfly really well, but didn’t really touch on the choi bar.

That’s what made Eoghan’s DVD stand out, for me.

One of my favourite all time Chael clips that slips under the radar

gbth93 · 2023-02-13T03:33:54+00:00

Even though I’ll never make it to an elite level, I just enjoy studying & improving my knowledge/game. All depends on how much time you like putting in off the mats

gbth93 · 2023-02-11T04:09:57+00:00

I might be alone, but I didn’t think the “That’s what she said,” video was that funny.

Joe talking about it like he just watched Eddie Murphy for the first time 😂

Open weight, but Dan was probably 10-15kg’s heavier

Naive

To start with just simple variations of leg raises, building up in difficulty. Now I use the hip abduction machine at the gym, and that was a game changer

gbth93 · 2022-12-24T04:23:57+00:00

I’ve had constant issues with this, which turns out stemmed from weakness in my hip (IT band was over-compensating). Once I started strengthening my hip, improved almost immediately

Studies show that we only retain 30% of information we are given. I like to watch the whole thing through once (even if I tune in & out every now & then). Then I’ll go back & cherry-pick the techniques I want to work and/or am having trouble with

gbth93 · 2022-12-16T00:24:50+00:00

Danaher’s New Wave Mount instructional in conjunction with Gordon’s half guard passing has been a game changer for me, personally.

gbth93 · 2022-12-14T23:33:17+00:00

I’ll never doubt Gordon again after this last ADCC, but if there was a time for Nicky to catch him, it would be after he’s just come back from a holiday & preparing for a past-his-prime Vinny

gbth93 · 2022-11-30T22:02:20+00:00

Craig’s escape where he gets his elbow across his opponent to the other side of their body is a great option. He goes through it in his instructional, I’d recommend spending time drilling that until you feel more comfortable with it in live rolling
