Knee On Belly Knee Switch To Triangle

Ok this works No-Gi as well, and maybe better as a no arm triangle, I'll see if I can dig up a video of one and post it below. This is a pretty sweet move that will catch a lot of guys unprepared.

This is a good video on a no arm Triangle, to hit it from the mount is slightly different because you reach your hand diagonally across your body and opponents neck, grabbing your own leg with a palm facing grip then roll over your shoulder and lock your other leg over your foot and hand ( I know a little complicated, but play around with it- it is easier than it sounds and will make more sense!)

Rolling Ankle Lock

I think most guys know this one- but this is a pretty good video and description- maybe you pick up a small detail or two.

2012 Sambo Highlights

I think this was from the Russian Championships, but I could be mistaken...looks like a lower level competition...but a good highlight that demonstrates just how awesome a sport Sambo is!

Dean Lister: Reverse Kimura

Dean Lister showing off a HUGE part of my game right here...this is some top notch technique!

Another Ude Gatame Variation

This video is about 4 minuets longer than it probably needs to be; I kept waiting for more- but there isn't, just the same technique 3 or 4 times....but worth the watch none the less- that armbar is mean!

Neil Melanson, Randy Couture and Frank Trigg : Catch Demo

Pretty cool video, lots of turtle time, I hear Neil is big on the turtle because it hides your face from punches I guess that could be good for MMA (with a good system and lots of practice). I suppose this comes naturally for top notch wrestlers like Randy and Frank. Me I don't prefer it...but I guess that's why I should practice there more!

Deep Half Back Take, Cyborg Style

Just Watch...

Classic And Effective Scarf Hold Escape

CACC Overview

Pretty good CACC video, with some cool techniques, many of which I have used and taught very successfully, and until now not really seen anybody else use! I'm psyched that I'm not the only one that uses some of these:)

One of my favorite guys to swap technique with and owner of one the nastiest guillotines I've ever been in, Nate "The Snake" Andrews, shows off his choking skills in his recent fight from CES "Real Pain".

12 min. With Team Lloyd Irvin C/O BudoVideos.com

A Great 12 min. with team Lloyd Irvin just before the wold no-gi championships- enjoy.

Telephone Armlock

Alright...this is an OK video...the technique is isn't the sharpest I've seen or the most technical BUT it is good ANd best of all it shows ON VIDEO the Telephone armlock! I JUST taught this a couple weeks ago and it is true that this is from an old Nakamura Shooto book from like 1995! A quick point though: don't grab the wrist like it's shown in the video: grab the pinky side of your opponents hand- it is much more painful that way and you'll get the tap MUCH faster! Enjoy.

Russian Tilts, Turns and Pins

This is just some MEAN technique right here!
