This didn’t appear to me to be the traditional elbow knee escape, but I thought the discussion of base was insightful. I have good base on top and have been trying to transfer it somehow to bottom - I think you’re onto something here as placing your limbs outside your body frame from bottom should increase your base/leverage, especially when you get an angle on your side.
I agree with @F R. This doesn't look like a traditional move. Also, I have tried a lot of these in a live roll. An experienced person sees this stuff. I had this happen last night. I came in trying to do a uppa with a tuck of the arm. They will base out. Maybe you could show this as a live roll but I'm not fully convinced given my limited experience on the mat.
This is one of my favorite BJJ videos on youtube for explaining how to use base, posture and connection. Could you develop a course explaining how to use BPC for every position? That'd sell like hotcakes. I'd be all over it.
A smart student should ask : 1/ where is my base in this situation ? 2/ which posture for this situation ? 3/ which connexion do I make ? 4/ my little X angle? Awesome ! Thanks
Let's see it work in rolling and competition, highly doubtful unless the skill gap and/or size/strength advantage is large. If it worked people would be doing it in competition, period.
This is a pretty common escape. The devil is in the details for understanding how it works and that's what Matt is offering here. Try it rather then just trying to be contrarian.
gabehcuoD suoitneterP thats the problem with BJJ currently. People think stripes on a belt establish authority. How about winning tournaments to show your ability? Don’t forget stripes in BJJ are just time in grade. They have nothing to do with skill.
R Olson how many stripes do you have on your black belt. I have 3. To get a stripes on your black you are not required to compete or even take a test. I’m taking it you are maybe a blue belt. But that is a stretch. Do you even train?
@@BadWolfMMANashville I'm just a lowly purple belt, but I know a dumb comment when I read it. I also find it funny that you call him out for drawing attention to his belt while touting the 3 stripes on yours (which I respect in the utmost sense btw) There's nothing wrong with this guy quickly taking off his Gi to show the technique, It makes perfect sense. On the other hand, where I'm from, guys don't wear wrestling shoes on the mat while rolling in a gi, so should your school be called out for that ?

The explanation of why this technique works and why it matters is brilliant. Very important lesson here

Thank you Matt. Sincerely. The why and technical how of the escapes is usually not taught.

What is his belt? Why is it grey?
Thats an old black belt there (the actual belt,not Matt). I think he received it in 2002.
👍

A smart student should ask :

2/ which posture for this situation ?
3/ which connexion do I make ?
4/ my little X angle?

craigdanielmaceacher shut up and train
Are you telling me that you've never framed on the hips and shrimp-escaped from the mount in rolling or in a comp?

“I’m going to take my gi off so we can see better....”
Then why start with it on in the first place. Just trying to draw attention to his belt.
Bad Wolf MMA establishing authority of ethos first in his presentation. Nothing wrong with that.
