Great video! I recently revisited my purchase of your modern double sleeve guard and these new attacks marry well and build off of that foundational system. Come back to America (Granite City) soon.

John I have to say I love this video so much. Your detail just on that grip has changed things for me using the lasso. So much so people try not to let me get that lasso anymore😂. All the details in this video are amazing, cuz I luv me some Meragali and having someone explain this in this detail is so helpful. Oss🤙.

I find your videos very clear and easy to follow. Keep up the good work!

Jon, I’d love to see the options when the opponent is on their knees if you ever do a follow-up series on this

So good. Just happened to be the thing I've been studying lately. Since you asked for ideas for future videos. I'd be curious to see one series on half guard, which is a tricky beast. Danaher says it's a great position for both players. Both can use it to their advantage. So, I'd be curious to see a bottom of half guard system, and then a top half system. I bet there'd be some interesting material there.

Great content as always, Jon! One thing I was curious: Meregali in a recent DVD actually said he prefers to play DLR guard with his right foot placed underneath the top player’s right hip, which is (incidentally?) the same position during his lasso sweep. I end up in this position a lot when playing DLR when the top player stuffs my right leg to set up the knee cut pass. I used to think of this situation that requires a defensive response (i.e. lassoing with my left leg like you have recommended in the past + freeing the right leg), but it seems like there are actually various counter attacks from this position with the right foot underneath the hip, such as off balancing the top player forward, for one. Any thoughts on this?

Nice information

@JonThomasBJJ

Awesome Jon. Does it work with short legs?

Awesome! Why would you switch to the deep lasso rather than the shallow lasso in your open guard instructional? Size difference or just preference?

This is better than a lot of paid contents on BJJ Fanatics

I am happy that you do too!

Can you show your idea about guard pull and contr guard pull?

Jon, please may you tell me: before releasing the grip at 2:55 for the tilt sweep, could I instead kick his far/non DLR hooked knee out to off balance him, so that as he tries to rebalance himself by coming back up to his normal posture/towards the direction of your lasso hook/direction of the tilt, he ends up inadvertently using his energy to push himself further into the tilt sweep? I’m not trying to be a smart arse by adding this bit on, I just try this sweep with 110+ people with good base and I’m wondering whether that off-balance towards the opposite side first will give me more of his own energy to help finish the sweep. Thank you as always for such modern and technical content!

@JonThomasBJJ

6 ай бұрын

No problem buddy good question, I need to go on mat to play with it to feel for sure, but I remember playing with that a bit and I feel that usually when you kick the leg out it puts their base too far to the side you kick on and it’s hard to get the sweep back the other way, I feel the timing method is much more successful. If you had the collar with your right hand then I think it might work better cause you can really break their posture when you do it, but with double sleeve I think it would be harder

@aidanlee8804

@@JonThomasBJJ Thank you very much Jon. Ok, yes that’s annoying and I didn’t take that it may make them base too far out into account. I think that I’m going through this period now In Jiujitsu, where I’m finding it increasingly more and more evident that certain sweeps and attacks are better suited to certain people than on others. For instance, I use this particular sweep a lot effectively and I can even feel the exact moment to hit it, even when I’m sometimes not aiming to use this particular sweep. From a selfish perspective, I would really, really love you please to do a video on how you would attack opponents much, much heavier than yourself, especially people who pass on their knees, as I can’t use DLR/X on them if they’re passing kneeling and I certainly wouldn’t want to triangle them from collar sleeve, as their stacking weight will crush me and I’m 95kg! I use arm drags/collar drags against these people so their weight isn’t facing me. Please, if you ever get the chance it’s a tactical problem many of my peers have too and I would love to here how you may deal with these giants on the mats! Anyway, thank you as always Jon for your expertise and a Merry Christmas from London! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

So you have any tutorial with no gi?

Maybe a stupid question, but what fo you like to do when you have a lasso and the opponent drops to their knees to stall out the sweep? Just transition to butterfly or something?
