Two simple and effective Butterfly Guard passes that everyone MUST know
hmmm, this should work?
Pretty Please... with cherries and all that
Learn Bjj....quickly?
good stuff. I was just drilling this the other day from Galvao's book. I like the detail on holding the knees down rather than keeping the feet to the butt on the 2nd pass...I'll try to think of it that way.
BTW - in the gi, I like to reach around (beeeeep) both legs, I feel like you're less susceptible to arm drag, because you can keep your arm to the outside easier. The reach isn't as bad in the gi, because the other hand doesn't have to go all the way around his back. I think it also tranlates into a different pass quicker (same side pant and sleeve grip pass to knee on belly)
The other thing in the gi is the jelly roll counter to the 2nd pass that you show, since the bottom guy can grab your belt and roll under.
Agreed with the GI. Much easier to just grab the cuff than the ankle.
