• back escape prevention

  Firas does an excellent at going over, not just how to control someone and get the finish, but also how to maintain control when the opponent tries to escape. he covers falling to the underhook side, the choking arm side, losing top hook, losing bottom hook, and every combination thereof. I highly recommend it.

• All the essentials

  This is a great system for forcing multiple dilemmas when an opponent tries to escape the back. It is very systematic and the options flow together pretty seamlessly.
