Highly recommended for anyone looking to level up their wrestling for BJJ/MMA.
Good
I love the Blackout approach and their view on grappling. This video ist good.
As a long time wrestler, I find it rare to find a takedown instructional where every move is something I've never seen before. But of course, the Petrones' innovative style shows up big once again! This is a complete gamechanger, and I'll never look at single legs the same way again
Game changing. That's the best way to describe the Petrone's style. They show you why I think the cradle should be worth as many points as taking the back. It's insane how they keep coming up with amazing and effective cradle techniques. This one has completely changes my takedown game, and as a long time wrestler, that's saying alot
Wonderful
Hands down some of the dopest techniques fathomable... Don't sleep on blackouts shizen... Or you just might get put in nap time involuntarily by some one who didn't...
Reslly dig this instructional. Dave is a good teacher that provides a lot of detail in an organized, concise manner. There are varying techniques for different ability levels. Some very creative and others more of a "path" to traditional submissions.
Nothing is as cool to me as the hybrid cradle system david petrone has been perfecting. You could say im a big fan:fire:it works almost to good.
I was able to immediately apply the cradle takedowns in live rolls, as well as teaching my students after watching the video. It's especially useful for my mma fighters in utilizing the cage for transitions to ground n pound and or securing the submission through the positive control that the cradle affords.
