[david5]

[fightingfan]

[boromma]

I bought it and really struggled to get into it - once I found out hes just a no good druggie - its really hard to beleive anything he says - ontop of all the fucking stupid names for moves - Lockdown - JiuClaw -

Get a life stoner!

but that said Im sure its good - lots of others say it is

[fightingfan]

I don't care what he calls his techniques, I care if they work on a resisting opponent.

Yes got it and its well worth the money. If you are interested in no Gi then go buy it and work it with your partners. One thing though, don't skip anything that includes stretches and the other thigh strengthening exercises. The ability to press in with your thighs and leg flexibility are both very important in the rubber guard stuff.

Luck,

Yeah the whole intro is a bit weird, but at the end of the the day hes an Abu Dhabi winner and was the first American to defeat a Gracie in straight grappling so hes gotta know something right?

and a lot of those techniques in the book he DID use when he defeated Royler :)

pdf file from a certain torrent site.

fightingfan, not read it much yet, it has a very logical set up and it's very easy to follow from move to move. it's definitely a system as opposed to a collection of random moves like a lot of books. the few techniques i've picked up (rubber, half guard) work well on resisting opponents.

Just got his DVD called "The Twister". The guy is more irritating than thrush but his fights are pretty good. Bought it off e-bay and basically paid eight quid for a copy not an original. The joys of e-bay.
