Good simple technique.
JT strikes again…excellent move and very simple to execute. If all fails pull into the guard and work on more points. JT does a good job in explaining the technique…like usual. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
I REALLY REALLY love this particular choke!JT, that was a great breakdown and explaination. I like the “ice cream scoop” thing.. it helps to tie a trigger terminology to the technique to get it to stick in your mind.
Thanks! Great explanation, but I can’t see exactly how the left arm grasps the right arm. Can you show us again with more light? The video is pretty dark underneath where your arms are under his neck. – Thanks
Excellent break down. Very good and simple technique that works like a charm (with enough drilling!)
Great simple technique. Used it in training and guys are gettin pissed! Usually take the back or pull gaurd, but this is sooo much easier!
Thanks for the videos JT, much appreciated
Great tech, its seems this finish is catching fire with everyone, the first time I saw this was on Marcelo’s 4th series, very effective
good explanation, very clear use of the words “ice cream scoop”
Looks like an effective move and I look forward to trying it out. Thank you as always
Do you abondon the chin and slide to the neck?? The pressure applied is it from the thumb area? mickeythepitbull@yahoo.com for answers
This morning in training i tried JT’s “arm bar to back take” technique after drilling it the whole of last night. And surprise surprise! i got it first time..and second and a third! I cant wait to try this one in class. These videos are amazing and JT’s instruction is flawless. Its like having a world class competitor that KNOWS HOW TO TEACH REALLY WELL, right in my living room.
Great video again! I actually pulled this off when I rolled this morning. I used to try and pull a “regular” guillotine or an anaconda during this transition with some amount of success. I was able to pull this one off almost every time once I started working it with a partner… Thanks!
Nice submission.
Great explanation & detail.
I liked how JT explained & showed the proper hand-positioning & transition on its own – without Mike Fowler – so we could see what was otherwise being blocked by Fowler’s chin/kneck.
Concise, simple, and effective. I like the clarity of his teaching. Thanks.
Great video! Can’t wait to try this in class…Thanks
i like ice cream . very simple
Looks simple and awesome, I’ll try it and let you know. Aloha
Nice simple technique. Video instruction is well done and easy to follow- a key to whether the video is worth while or not.
Thanks for sharing!
this is an interesting option, gonna put it into the gameplan right away..also congrats on your black belt JT
very easy to bring a permanent damage to your opponent.
A lot of potentials from many other positions, like butterfly guard.
I like this one. Simple but effective. Will try it in my next class
I’m new to watching these videos and I’m very impressed. Multiple demonstrations, memorable terminology, and most important super effective. Very cool.
I’ll try it next time I roll, but it would have been nice to get a better view of the other side so we can see the positioning of his left forearm. Either that, or a demo could have been done with the same camera angle but switch to opposing grips.
I’m sure I’ll figure out the proper positioning through trial and error, but the angling could have been better. Thanks again, its always good to add something new to my game for more options to go to.
looks effictive, I’ll try it tomorrow in class!
nicely broken down! this is a great technique that will catch alot of begginers, or people who have never been exposed to it, at least a few times. i really like the way he opens the neck, something that i haven’t really used…YET:) but, this tech is so easy to slap on, not always the easiest to finish, it gives you alot of options because you are attacking early and fast! when defended, they have to bring their hands up to fight your hands, making it an easy transition to spin to the back. I LOVE IT!
p.s. For Remo: with the alternate angle you would see the same thing going down on the opposite side…so, just lock the hands under the chin (after you cup and scoop), close both elbows as tight as possible, curl your arms & wrists back towards your stomach and apply the pressure to the back of the head with your chest to make the head drop & keep him trapped…and tippity tap!
Nice. I’ve never seen it done this way. I learned the 10 finger guillotine at Minotauro’s in West Palm Beach. They stand up to finish it. Another awesome video.
Nicely demonstrated JT. This looks like a fast easy technique to apply. I am looking forward to trying it out in practice.
great stuff ,nice details,will definetly drill this one and put it in the arsenal keep em comin
nice tech
Is this move legal in UFC?
From the UFC website.
Fouls
11. Throat strikes of any kind, including, without limitation, grabbing the trachea.
Awesome move, great street technique as well.
I’ve struggled with this move before, maybe because my hands are small. However, I’ll have to try it with more pull toward the chest as the hands rotate like he shows.
Another great position, and congrats on your black belt. It’s great to see what American BJJ guys can do when they are afforded the chance to train like their Brazilian counterparts! -Proud of you! USA!!!
so simple yet so effective. i will try this out because im not very strong in the sprawl. You’re the man JT.
Nice alternative to the conventional choke underneath in the sprawl. I have been in that position on top and didn’t have much success with Anacondas or regular guillotines. Got to get to class to try this one out today.
hey thanks i loved the back taking dvd series it was great, i am climbing on backs like a monkey now, i like this one as well i definitely had it wrong. keep em coming this stuff is great for the sport.
Very simple and very effective. I used this technique during our in-house tournament and it worked like a charm. Thanx JT!
the step names are easy to remember. also if someone on the side calls out ice scoop… unless they have seen this video your opponent might be confused.
Nice simple technique. Will try it out tonight
The Guillotine is my favorite submission and this video allowed me to be aware of a different variation than the the one I usually use. I will be drilling this technique and hope to add it to my arsenal. Thanks.
I used this in a tourney…the match was over in 22 seconds.
Nice!
I Love this submission, I do it slightly a bit different. I look forward to trying you’re version.
Justin
Simple y efectiva, en ocaciones nadie toma en cuenta lo simple, busca algo mas elaborado, descuidando lo basico.
Gracias
Great one, it feels more painful than the regular guillotine.
THe fluidity of the move is conceptually ingenious how the transition from the sprawl leads to a submission while remaining in the same position. you do not find techniques of this magnitude in other DVD sets. Thank you for not holding back.
