The reviews
Great Rack
I agree that the rack is the better way to attack the back than the chairseat.
The Rack
Love brutal, pressure type style
The rack
Great technique. Just wish the audio quality was better Great details. Wish the audio was better
Ridiculously Effective
Okay… as you may read in other reviews, there are some audio issues in the video. However, the issues do not inhibit learning the material. It all comes across fine and, because the material is so good, it should not drop a star. I have a bunch of bjjfanatics videos. (I kinda have a bjjfanatics problem.) This is an awesome system. I have used The Rack successfully in class and I really like it. Because of the material I learned in this course, I don’t think I’ll ever pull someone on top of me to take their back (chair sit) again. It’s just not worth the risk of failing a submission and ending up on the bottom in an inferior position. The Rack system is so much easier and has a higher percentage of submission success. Kyle goes through The Rack position, submissions, alternate submissions and entries. It’s a versatile position that can be attained from anywhere. Great material that will forever be a part of my game. Highly recommend.
Controlling and entering the back Mount
In this DVD Kyle shows how to get to an improved back Mount system , with interplay between position and submissions . He also shows us how to get the gift wrap from a lot of different initial positions. Great DVD for those who like control from top and don't like giving too position to chase the back .
Rack Position
Really good instructional covering the Rickson Gracie style back mount. the section on different entries and auxiliary subs was very good. This instructional will pair well with anybody who enjoyed Craig Jones Power Ride or Matt Darcy's Art of Death Passing. for the "Pinning is Winning" folks out there.
BOOM!
really poewrful stuff!
awesome control
really changed my back game
Very good
A very good system of attack, very well explained. The only problem is that the sound is not good but for the content i give 5 stars
Hidden Gem
Great video. I'm glad I took a chance on it. The Rack is just a rear choke where you turn your opponent belly down. Simple but underutilized. Watson provides clear detail to make it work effectively. In the second half he shows a funnel system to get to it from almost everywhere. Taking 1 star away because the audio was really bad in a few sections.
Sneaky good
Simple, sneaky good instructional on a very actionable system of techniques
awesome stuff
great options for keeping tight pressure while exposing the back. This makes them want to give you the choke
Versatile Submission
The video content is solid, though the sound quality could be improved. I originally thought this technique was only for attacking the back, but it’s versatile and can be used effectively from multiple positions. It’s a valuable submission to add to your arsenal, and I definitely recommend it.
love it
awesome techniques in great detail

The Rack
awesome and brutal
this really helped my back attack game, makes the person want to tap just from pressure. Great for older grapplers who rely heavy on tight pressure and less explosive movements
the rack
very good
the rack
totally changed my back attack game plan
The Rack
Amazing instructional! Kyle is one of the best instructors and teachers on BJJFanatics!
Roadmap to complete domination
Absolutely loved this instructional. Kyle shows a roadmap to flattening your opponents into submission. He goes over how to deal with them whether it’s from the feet, or a pin. Highly recommend
