Is This The #1 Takedown In Wrestling?

Watch elite wrestlers execute the dump/barrel roll/fireman's carry on the best competition that the country (and even the world) has to offer.
This is Video #2 in a 4-Part Series

[@takedown6470]

Crazy, this is the series I been teaching for 40 years. Firemen, Short Carry with or without the leg . Short Carry to an arm drag. I was once told I was old school because I still showd this series and the cross face series to a cradle . Stuff work then and still works today. Great stuff.

[@earnyourgold]

Yeah man I’m obsessed with this series. People throw older moves out too fast because they think that they “won’t work on a good guy.” That’s why I always try to make my videos in a way that show that these technique work on elite wrestlers.

[@tadroid3858]

We called that "no leg" dump, the "hip dump", and my son used it to advance to the Greco finals at Fargo 2014. Left side is devastating.

[@samuelemeryjiujitsu]

I like that name, "short carry"

[@FunnyLaughVideos]

[@tadroid3858]

@@FunnyLaughVideos Nah. Up by 1, got tossed with 3 secs. left. Lost Freestyle final to Miles Martin. Came in 2nd at state in HS, too. Way out-performed his DNA potential, though.

[@PsychExperience]

Been dropping jaws as a heavyweight with this move for years 😂good stuff, this is a takedown series I think all wrestlers should have

[@morphling337]

This is a great series. When you fake drag or they stuff it, and you transition into a fireman's attempt and they stuff the fireman's, you're still deep enough that they they walk right into this dump. There's no great counter other than just preventing you from ever getting the two on one to begin with. And a lot of times people feel safe with the underhook when they're just not. As soon as the elbow gets trapped to the body, you lose all your "good" options. Even if you power out somehow just pulling back and up, they can just let go and switch to an outside ankle pick to single while your momentum is going the wrong way, and they're super deep before they even shoot.

[@ralphiewigs2208]

I started wrestling late and I didn't wrestle for long, but the dump kind came to me naturally. I'm not even sure if I was ever taught the move, I just knew that I could get results. It's fun to see it used effectively at the highest level. KZbin would have been so cool to have back then.

[@isaacm1168]

same, the dump was something that just clicked for me, i didnt even practice it that much either. i would often do the dump and tap the knee instead of scooping it like a standard firemans

[@robertmccardle1753]

This series is amazing bc it works in every single style of grappling. You can even hit a form of a fireman’s/dump in judo or Greco!! Great moves to learn and know

Wish I had the video you guys have today. Good shit.

[@jebwoodford1233]

The barrel roll lol. I knew someone who would beat people way better than him with this move alone.

[@cucumber9326]

I find going for a traditional fireman and transitioning to the dump works really well, my major mistake early on was dropping rather than dumping. Landed on my head really hard a few times

[@chubbydee1467]

In my opinion this video is premium ! stellar TEAM coaching material

[@scottfurgeson7060]

Always good stuff. Thanks

[@earnyourgold]

Thank you and no problem

[@jking5772]

I learned this move late in wrestling It helped me so much wish I learned it earlier and perfected it.

[@dvdly]

It was definitely part of my go-to series when I wrestled. I'm surprised nobody in the comments has mentioned a really great counter to the counter @2:44 . At my school we called it the Crusher, which is part of the series. When your opponent blocks to the inside of your knee, you reverse-hook that arm above the elbow with your off arm and grab the wrist of the first arm you have in the fireman's hold, which creates a lock. Then you roll him the other direction while pulling his elbow you have hooked. If you have it good and tight, your shoulder will be right in the center of his chest - hence the name Crusher. Now the arm that previously had the fireman's is free to grab behind his knee and elevate for the pin.

[@matjul2008]

Any chance you could post a short video of the Crusher?

[@dvdly]

@matjul2008 I'd thought about that, but since no one responded, just kind of forgot. I need to find someone to do it with me, which is not as easy as it sounds. I was kind of surprised not even our host here mentioned this move, especially because he's so high on the fireman's series, or whatever one calls it, but thinking more about it, I only ever saw guys on my team use it, so maybe it's virtually unknown, though that's hard to believe. For more general info: I had never heard it called a "barrel roll" until I made friends with someone I'd wrestled from another school. We were talking and he said, "You really got me with those barrel rolls." I had rolled him the traditional direction the first time (sitting out and pulling the fireman's arm) and got the takedown and back points. Then, the second time he blocked with his hand (as at @2:44 ) and I hooked the arm and sat the other way for another takedown and back points. The only reason I didn't stick him was his brute strength. I don't think there's any other defense against it once it's locked up. At least not if you're experienced and don't make the mistake of sitting toward your opponent. At my school the series was called "Kelly's" (no idea why, or who that is, but googling it's proved pointless) and the hook to the crusher we called a "Hobbes' hook" (again, no idea who that might be or if I'm even spelling it right). I'll try to put together a minute or so video when I get time, preferably if I can find someone. Thing is, I never thought I'd be watching college wrestling videos more than thirty years after I'd ever been on a mat. I love this channel, too.

[@sidneymusoba6109]

[@hardcoreyOH]

just found your channel! Solid stuff with some fun clickbait spice. I do think it's the best takedown in all styles. Turning 2 points into 5 is what it''s all about!

[@earnyourgold]

I like your comment 😂. The titles definitely have a little something extra to them to make them stand out on KZbin. I noticed that the basic wrestling titles didn’t get too much love. I always try to live up to the hype I create though.

[@hardcoreyOH]

@@earnyourgold hope it keeps working for you! It's probably why I found your stuff.

[@happyjourneygateway]

At 4:15 dude looks like he's got nothing and is about to get crushed and yet he's about to flip the other guy on his butt. That's why I love these interesting techniques you are collecting on this channel.

[@moremattime]

On point. Keep it up.

[@earnyourgold]

Appreciate it. Will do

[@TylerJayWalker]

Part of the reason the last guy is able to "chase" the move is if the opponent lets him keep that strong outside 2-on-one arm control, it's basically a free takedown. So having to fight that let's him dive into his inside head position to dump

[@outergod3961]

I've never seen this, its amazing

[@earnyourgold]

Yeah it's a nice move

[@Gabzz96]

I used to love hitting a fireman’s carry. It’s so underrated

[@mowcards3880]

Pretty sure desanto is the dump master

[@earnyourgold]

He absolutely is

[@1sttakedown51]

Just stumbled on this. Great vid and info. I can’t emphasize enough how tight your grip must be above the elbow. Almost to the point where it needs to be set up.

[@patrickstewart9767]

[@earnyourgold]

Yeah man and Haught was GOOD! 4th place and then a Runner-Up the next year. Just couldn't stop that move

[@douglaswebb9210]

Yup, the short carry is so tough to stop. That was my move.

[@isaacm1168]

Literally even when you sprawl if the keep moving with a tight arm it’s almost guaranteed

[@QKaZoo111]

That guy ain’t no d1 wrestler immediately figured that out when he used a barrel roll

[@earnyourgold]

Which guy?

[@dr.mikewinberry7212]

Not trying to rain on your parade, coach. I have watched a number of your videos and I think you do a great job. That move was my bread and butter for 20 years and I don't think there is a more effective way to take a guy down to his back and make him fight for his life. But you should consider putting together some serious technique videos, as you say.

[@Damin-Danger-Ledford]

I'm no wrestler. But this is my favorite move. I can usually find my way in. But my failed attempts look very similar. Now I know I don't have to bail out. Cheers

[@efalken]

you should add a link to the other videos in this series

[@silasditzer]

'that's all they do'

[@CFagan]

In the first clip I think it's more of a block or post on the hip, if you try to push too hard you can start rotating in the wrong direction and lose power/base

[@WilliamsWrestlin]

Makes sense fundamentally. You get into a front headlock and more than often you're gonna be bent over with all their weight on you. If their weight is not on you then they're bullshitting and you're bullshitting. But it seems like the key is to hold onto the tricep for dear life and create enough torque to dump. Seems fool proof if mastered

[@youmang]

This is really similar to a modified kata guruma where you just lock the arm in

[@falty2580]

You should have added sadulaev he used to hit it often too. But he used to swing his arm between the opponents leh

[@earnyourgold]

The wrestlers I chose I chose because they’re also going to be in videos 3/4 as well. Parris, Moore, Kharchla, and DiJulius all use the short drag as well. Since it’s a series, I wanted to the same wrestlers doing the moves throughout to have some continuity

Dump city

[@user-tv1tp2fr1u]

What do you think is highest percent, no leg, far leg, or near leg? Also, your content is great

[@earnyourgold]

I wish I could give you a more direct answer, but I can’t. My honest opinion is once you learn one, getting good at the other two doesn’t require much more effort because you already have the base down. Because of this, instead of spamming one of them and being super predictable and less flexible, knowing all 3 will allow you to pick which one best fits that situation, therefore making it higher percentage

[@earnyourgold]

I’m saying if you know all 3 of them, they’re all be high percentage because let’s say you force a near leg dump when the far leg was the one that was open. And vice versa. The dump was there, just not the one that you were looking for. That’s why you should be able to do at least 2 of them, if not all 3.

[@user-tv1tp2fr1u]

@@earnyourgold Thank you for the reply. What situation would the no leg dump not work? I’m new to wrestling

[@earnyourgold]

@@user-tv1tp2fr1u the “no leg” seems to work better when the opponent fully sprawls out. I would grab a leg if they’re more so in a stance in order to remove that point of stability/balance

[@user-tv1tp2fr1u]

@@earnyourgold got it. So you try to dump whichever leg is closer to you, and if they sprawl, you do the “no leg” dump. Thank you

[@tucsondigitalmotionx-ray3635]

Coach, you need to emphasize the hip heist- that’s where the power for the dump comes from.

[@earnyourgold]

Yeah the dump is such a “feel” kind of move that this video wasn’t so much trying to teach exactly how to do it, but to show how many different ways you can set it up, finish it, and how it works on the best guys. I would have to do like an actually tutorial to try to really teach it

You better hope there is no god cause every single senior that knows what is going on regrets it . You are being lied to just like just like everyone else and your future family will hate you for being so stupid...
