I’m a taller guy at 6’3” and the snap down to guillotine is how I won my very first tournament match. I’ve only been training for 3 weeks and I hit a snap down grabbed the chin strap then jumped the arm in guillotine. This combo from snap down to chin strap to double leg or snap down to guillotine is by far my best takedown set up with my limited knowledge so this video was amazing for me. Thanks 💯 🙏

[@wingoreviewsboxingandmma3667]

The front headlock position is usually where the snapdown will happen.

[@johnhaworth7034]

the inside position is exactly the same as the thai clinch but with a lower base.

[@TyHatfield]

Yeah, I had a guy that told me that snap downs don’t work and I’m like oh my gosh I’ve been doing snap downs my whole life

[@keithwong7031]

What do you do when the opponent has wrestlers stance with his arm protecting his lead leg palm facing up, ready for the double leg?

[@GracieGarage]

Great for getting into Guillotines!

[@tumvoorn]

Diamond!

[@kallepikku4991]

Did Lachlan Giles also start his career from Freestyle wrestling like Garry Tonon? Those snapdowns and penetration steps were way too fluent for your average jiu-jitsu black belt. Great video! Thanks for sharing.

[@ChipsterSwag]

Garry never wrestled freestyle but folkstyle. Lachlan has no wrestling background but trains wrestling extensively these days and even won the australian freestyle wrestling championships if I remember correctly.

[@kallepikku4991]

@@ChipsterSwag Thanks for the info. Appreciate it. Tried to look it up, but there's no reliable websites describing his background. Only some agenda based websites.

I predict a downblock series
