Use PRESSURE To Pass Today’s Modern Guards With IBJJF And ADCC World Champ Robert Drysdale!
Passing open guard can be a tricky endeavor. Thankfully, IBJJF and ADCC Champion Robert Drysdale is here to provide a clear-cut process on successfully dismantling some of the most common strategies from open guard. His latest instructional, Constant Pressure To Pass is a 4-part series from Drysdale that focuses on using pressure to dominate multiple variations of De La Riva, knee shield, lasso guard, berimbolos, and MORE!
Passing with pressure is a great way to shut down good open guard players. The more that you can stifle your opponent’s movement the less likely they will be able to overwhelm you with offense. Robert covers techniques at every turn that will help you shut down offense with dominating pressure, while you work towards securing the pass.
A major aspect of the series focuses on preventative measures to help stop the open guard before it starts. With this approach you will spend less time unwinding positions like lasso guard, DLR, or knee shield. Drysdale looks to put you in complete control while passing by covering early concepts that you can do to totally change the dynamic of passing the open guard. You’ll learn how to stop offensive grips, proper body mechanics, foot positioning, posture, among other game-changing concepts.
The series will also add another layer of attack to your passing game with Robert’s BRUTAL leg attacks. Use Robert’s unique calf slicer to completely shut down the De La Riva and make opponents second guess themselves every time they try to establish the DLR. This added dimension of attack will also make passing the guard much easier!
