Awesome Octopus
I have been building my bottom half guard game for years now based on Danahers half guard series. The underhook half guard series is amazing and works really well but most people at my gym are aware of the threat of the underhook and will fight to not let you get it. This series really rounds out that equation. As soon as I started going to the other side I was immediately able to add lots of sweeps and back takes to my half guard game. If they are defending the underhook well or are reaching for the head to try to gain the cross face then swimming under on the passing side is available and you have the sweep or the back depending on the opponent's reaction. I would highly recommend this to anyone serious about bottom half guard. You can literally double your success rate in a short amount of time. Sometimes when trying to gain the underhook from bottom half I felt like I was trying to pound a square peg into a round hole. This series gives you smooth, unexpected transitions to a new series of attacks that when combined with traditional attacks will frustrate and impress your opponents and training partners.
