[@definitelynottigerwhitten5865]

OSSSU

[@HollyDollyTakahani]

Thank you! 😊

[@ProjectMaelstrom]

FOUND THIS VIDEO AFTER 10 YEARS. ITS STILL GOLD DAMN!

[@jonjgoslee]

As a half guard player, I love seeing these techniques get out there. Thanks for making this.

[@Clackamasone]

Been doing BJJ for 8 years, but never have seen such great videos to put everything together in a great overview. Helps just to watch one then go roll!

[@demon39063]

The sheer breadth of knowledge of a black belt never ceases to amaze me. Thanks for putting these together.

[@spencerherbert3585]

Took me a while to realize how half and closed were more my style then most open guard variations.

[@MaxLohMusic]

BJJ already blows my mind with its chess-like antics every day but THIS REALLY REALLY BLEW MY MIND LIKE NOTHING ELSE, especially the rolly/spinny moves like 2:36 and 6:30... I mean I've taken college math classes like multi-variable calculus that require visualizing weird solutions in multiple dimensions but this video puts them all to shame! Every engineer, chess player, and intellectual person should be exposed to the mind-bending beauty of BJJ.

[@BA-pz3lo]

incredible this video was posted 11 years ago this was before the other BJJ youtube channels

[@b0ris360]

I remember having to really search to find the odd new technique but now vids like this make it so much easier. Thanks for your work.

[@evanmyers9255]

Watching this at half speed is super helpful for processing the different steps of the techniques. It’s also unintentionally hilarious, because the voiceover now sounds like he’s had about seven shots of Jameson.

[@rickyrichy5496]

do the details instructions. it would be really useful. thanks

[@dboyzero]

i'm loving all these reference videos, so many options i'd never thought about or heard of.

[@spencerydc]

amazing. i've been off the mat for months and this video brought back so many things i forgot. thanks jason!

[@Wolfenstein355]

thank you jason for loading this amazing stuff up.....i include it in my grappling style....please keep on the good work.....

[@trianglechokeU]

havent trained for 3 yrs this is a great refresher! thank you

[@seattlesoundisgrunge]

man...i REALLY like all your vids....like seriously these are just really good reference videos that showcase alot of options from a few positions in a way that really gets me thinking more about those psotions. if there was a place i felt i didn't have as many options from so i never worked on it well now i do lol. i mean these vids are really good at getting you to think about sub's of course, but really alot of control

[@hasanmohiuddin5567]

Very nice video man I appreciate the technique. Perfectly timed explanations for each step of the process. Keep them coming!

[@Kadamir]

I really like the approach you are using to make your videos. I think you are the first who did these small vids with many fast following techniques in it. It is nice to see the whole variety of possible techniques from a certain position.

[@AmbicionEterna]

Guys. Seriously keep this up!

[@Riofightwear1]

You're putting out some of the best stuff on the internet right now.

[@captainzorikh]

I was just in class today. We learned a new counter from half guard and I was able to use it in the free rolling later. However once again I did find myself flat under someone's half guard and though I had double underhooks, my head was on the wrong side. I guess at my level "don't allow them to do that" is not a fully applicable strategy yet :)

[@johnjohnson6412]

These videos are so helpful to my game bro. It will help evolve the sport as well. I appreciate what you have done so much. Thank you.

[@hellogary11]

Awesome video. Awesome helpful series. Thanks for making this. Sometimes people forget not only how expensive intructionals are but also the fact that fighters are always broke. Thanks again, big time.

[@garyking4032]

So smooth Jason - thanks for posting

[@Daggerfall40]

Fantastic video. The demonstrator moves so smoothly.

[@Black-Circle]

with videos like these I do not regret subbing this channel! amazing work

[@adaptiveagile]

Beautiful stuff. Smooth and technical.

[@thelifeofpieman]

42 sweeps in 6 minutes. It's like my first sparring session all over again

[@AlR747]

Thanks for putting this together.

[@ramanmccauley]

Rolling triangle choke was awesome!!! TUTORIAL YES PLEASE.

[@MattBurosh]

Awesome vid and flawless execution!

[@MESSER8989]

This is amazing! The ONLY time I have ever hit the subscribe button...well done.

[@cooley209]

some really solid half guard techniques, thanks as always!

[@deebo22x]

@captainzorikh from what my instructor has told me, you're supposed to keep your outside leg planted and bridge slightly while pulling your inside arm in so that you can recover a laying-on-your-side position. You should only lock your half guard when your opponent is attempting to pass.

[@drygarbanzo]

ok seriously that deep half guard sweep to double unders is absolutely insane. Drilling that for sure

[@morgchem]

Very nice reflections on the half guard. I really liked the toe lock from deep half. Lots of fun variations I'm going to bring up in class!

[@miltonchuu]

I love you man ! Best channel i ever came across too !

[@LocNguyen82]

Your videos are really great! Seeing all these many options in quick succession are making it easy for me to select a few to incorporate. Have you thought about making each one an animated GIF? I know that's a lot of work but I had to ask.

[@johnpark7662]

Fantastic video!

[@restinrigpa]

Very informative info! I really enjoy your videos. keep em' coming!

[@thestarsof2012]

Thank you for the rolling omoplata attack at the end.

[@clytnjms]

Once again my brother....great great video.

[@LozgarNo1Serbia]

Me and my friends dont have this sport in our town soo we must training by youtube! This video is soo helpfull!

[@jonnybricks22]

Your rapid fire techniques are perfect. You are not supposed to get everything down watching the video a couple times. You watch the video indefinitely and train while working key techniques that fit your style. Its perfect and its been improving my Jiu Jitsu. Even the proper Shrimping tutorial has improved my hip escapes both front and reverse. Thank you and keep up the great work

[@cvano003]

Just went through this video very slowly and took notes.. I'm a smaller beginner, and im always in this position! Thanks very much ill be studying this and hopefully have some success, thanks!

[@bryandavies4662]

These quick-fire technique videos are sweet.

[@dfonsah]

Great Stuff! A lot of info, short time, doesn't get better than this!

[@notoriousquinnb]

Loved the techniques, I have never even seen the waiter guard before so it was mind blowing especially!

[@jiujitsusnowboarder]

Such a great video!

[@rhdadrian]

wow your videos are really good, please keep making more of these!!

[@SerbianTexan]

Great combos! Thanks bro!

[@dmxbull1]

Jason is the man...GREAT moves!

[@TheDuroflex]

Another awesome video!

[@MikeRainey]

This was awesome. Thanks Jason!

[@seattlesoundisgrunge]

also i've already showed 1 or 2 ppl at my school ur 55 closed guard tech vid and they liked it. im gonna make it a point to show my instructor, i'm sure he'd appreciate them

[@laaaaambofgod]

Awesome, most of the techniques are pretty much self explanatory as well which is even better I'm making a note right now to drill that calf slicer and kimura tonight

[@sarahbliler3241]

This was great to watch- very informative. Thank you!

[@bowandarrow303]

LOVE these videos! Thanks a lot bro..keep up the great work

[@mdavis1992]

[@jordandickinson7957]

A massive fan, thanks for the info.

[@dubhudz]

@jasculs would def buy one. half guard is my spot, would love to have more instruction from there.

[@OdinsHallsBrazilianJiuJitsu]

Great vid jason

[@racingmylife15]

awesome video

[@JCaliber90]

love half guard! Will always look for that position in BJJ and MMA, theres just so much you can do!

[@julianfolkBJJ]

wow man all of your technique videos just made my personal bjj collection :)

[@biggs0218]

Definitely giving me ideas to start being more active instead of locking down in the bottom

[@Propagandawar23]

Woot! Yes I've been working on getting my Half Guard Down, thanks for this.

[@bingowoohoo]

dude. awesome videos.

[@chancevance1641]

That was amazing, thank you very much for your videos sir, the rolling triangle and rolling omoplata were complete jaw droppers for me and I hope my friends don't mind rolling with me tomorrow so I can practice these moves. Thank you again for these videos.

[@mrbriadis]

I love these vids, eye opening stuff! Maybe a video from side position?

[@agus0721]

dude congrats ur videos r very good, and usefull dynamic and very real

[@cindybright7772]

Thanks so much. Really well done.

[@TheEggerton]

This video is awesome. I will definetly be hitting the rolling triangle!!

[@markflavell5782]

This stuff blows my mind. Definitely want to add half guard to my game.

[@stephenrose1902]

That's excellent, I'm going to make a point of learning each and everyone of these.

[@stevenix1978]

im only a beginner but watching this has taught me something very valuable...never stay on your back!!! its all about angles...i cant wait to see how much easier it is to defend when im actually in the right position! lol, thanks

[@justnjitsu]

Well done.

[@faminetheplauged582]

HOLY SHIT!!! That toe hold is sick dude! I'm one of the smallest members of my gym so I find myself in bottom positions often. This will be a game changer for sure! Thank you!

[@jeremiahlaird]

It is going to be great to be this fluid. I like how there is no wasted movement.

[@bedevere007]

awesome tech

[@skatepark1ful]

THIS IS SOOOOO AWESOME!!! As are all your vids!!! And still CONFUSING AS ffffffffffff I can watch all these over & over INCLUDING THE OTHER TEACHERS TOO!!! Thanks for you kind information and SHARING YOUR ABILITIES!!! Signed, WANTON FOLLOWER

[@abbyisdead123]

Theres also a twister sitting right there if you use the same method as the calf slicer you can transition through both effectivly

[@mar1wwe]

this is just awesome thank you so much !

[@bomberitodelacuarta]

Thank you Professor.

[@rolotomase1440]

Wow, mind blown! I'm a blue belt and this is a lot to decipher. I don't even know where to begin. I think just the recognition there is a whole you can do on the bottom. Seeing points where I think I'm passed is actually the opening for a submission or sweep. Amazing. Thank you!.

[@EdwardmWhitney]

I say this sincerely. Shut this video off and go watch Gordon and Danaher’s half guard system. This was great stuff a decade ago

[@esterisk]

Thanks for sharing!

[@BraveSirSausage]

this is so sick ! many thanks

[@dynaordie8083]

This is a killer video

[@patman3310]

Love the video I just wish they had the names for each sweep on screen so I could look up individual videos after

[@bornfedslaughter]

these are so cool!!

[@dastrn]

@captainzorikh Your job in the half guard is ALWAYS to get on your side and try to get the one underhook. If you're flat on your back, you have almost no attacks or sweeps available, and you will be passed. If your on your right side, you your right hand to block your opponent's left hand. Otherwise, he can get head and arm control and flatten you out. You can think of your full-guard the same way. Try to be slightly on your side. You will have more dynamic movement.
