Great great upload. I know this technique from bjj rolling sessions, but you gave a simple full detail form guide, and then showed it in endless positions. First video of yours ive ever seen or heard of but will be subbed now.

Yup. I had close caption on on another video a few years ago when I saw it was “Granby”… I was wondering for so long why it was named after an old woman… LOL… though it took me a little longer to find out where the term “Granby” came from, but it still sounded better than “Granny Roll”

I always liked the forward roll to kneebar combo. It works well from standing or turtle.

Thank you! Excellent!

I grew up wrestling for coaches who wrestled for Billy Martin Sr. at Granby high school in Norfolk, VA. The move didn't really have a name until the high school students went on to wrestle at colleges across the country. During the tournaments the announcers didn't know how or what to call the move so they simply said that the "boys from Granby are doing that roll." It became known as the Granby roll. The original movement was mostly a forward roll but it soon evolved into the arm being thrown cross body during the roll. It works best when the opponent on top applies downward and forward pressure on you (trying to break you down into the mat). If there is no pressure being applied then it makes it difficult for the move to be successful. Great video!

Sonny Brown you might like “facing violence” and the other books by the author (rory miller i think). As far as wrestling on concrete, i figure the moves where you slam your own knees down have got to go. Greco stuff maybe.

A Granary Roll is not as useful from a grappling perspective but with the right filling, makes for a healthy lunchtime snack.

Was wondering why Poirier didn't apply one of these rolls when Connor caught his foot in the second round of their epic fight yesterday. Didn't cost him the win in the end. But this Granby or other rolls would have been a viable escape solution.

Why don't they do this in movie fight choreography, even in the best of HK films? Because it requires a real fighter to pull off wrestling maneuvers including the amazing Granby rolls while any fool can punch, kick, do acrobats and do those virtually useless standing locks that you see in movies! A typical or even world class martial artist who isn't a fighter won't be able to display this in a movie choreography because non of them could really wrestle which is the foundation to becoming a real fighter and thus, the foundation to pull off those amazing, beautiful Granby Rolls! I guess reality is really stranger (more beautiful) than fiction!
