the switch!!

this is a move ive known about for a long time but not until today have i started to geting good at it,

it's really just a little turn on the hips and you end on top, a hooks guard game ain't complete without this move, garcia is probably the master of this,



btw: i know i take a big risk of getting flamed cause i whow techs in shorts and a sweety tshirt, so be nice even if you think this is a crappy tech

I always thought the switch and sit out were the same thing. So in the video you're switching from a butterfly-ish guard to like a single leg or top control?

wrestling 101 in wrestling the switch is used at the moment of the sit out..if you really breakdown a switch you can also see how it would be rather simple to turn it into a kimura ala Sakuraba.
Very useful from the turtle (referees position)

I learned a switch from Buddy Clinton from the butterfly guard. It is hard to tell what your is without someone with you.

I've been trying to get good at butterfly guard & am getting slightly better in turtle. I find myself using this position alot.

Soundless yet informative vid .. thanks.
