Side Control

01:05:01

The “Kimura Series” and “Brabo Series” are HUGE areas of focus in the course itself. People interested in getting 30 different moves from side control may be disappointed, but when I talked to Lovato – we explained that basically he’s teaching the way he attacks from this position – it’s really a teaching of HIS exact game, more than just a buffet of moves. For me, that’s a more than fair trade-off, and just like the Pressure Passing Course, most people that get in on this one are likely to be interested in HIS game moreso than just another few moves.

The details on the Kimura are super-deep, and Rafael insists on hammering home the point that it’s not a “strong guy move.” With an emphasis on leverage, grip breaks and some crafty setups – this is one of the coolest things about the DVD set – especially for all of us who were watching his match versus Kayron Gracie at Metamoris.

Mount

01:19:08

The “Pressure Passing System” course had a lot to do with something I’m still HORRIBLE at – and that’s passing guard directly to the mount. Good thing Lovato’s not horrible at it – and a lot of the gi chokes from here will probably quench the “Roger Gracie-Style” thirst for simple, strait-to-the-point submissions. Pressure, force mistake, pressure, force mistake, capitalize.

There were a few Ezekiel details that were SICK as well as variations of mounted gi chokes that I hadn’t seen before. Armbar stuff is thrown in there as well – much of the time being linked to earlier threats with the gi, fitting in with Rafael’s “chaining” instruction method.

Back Attacks

00:39:34 + 00:31:54

Back mount is my favorite of all positions for attack. Lovato is arguably known for more mount and side control stuff, but his details from here are cool as well. Those of you who are fans of gi chokes will be all over this section probably just as much as the mount section, but I liked the back mount setups most overall. Getting to the back in the first place is a skill that I feel is only getting more and more important, and some of the gripping sequences and ways of using the gi to help setup the back take and setup the choke in transition.
