LDHG/DHG in Photos

11 May 2008 318 views 5 Comments

Before I shot video, I took these photos of the basic long distance and deep half guard sweep that I use.

This is the same one that I show in the first video.

Basic long distance half guard posture. Knee in the hip to maintain space and turn my on my side. Ankles

crossed, left over right. Left hand on the shoulder, forearm framing the neck. Right hand controlling the

far arm at the wrist or biceps.

He cannot underhook me when my arm is framing his neck. He also cant overhook for the brabo. I can

use the knee to make space and choose when I want to dive for the underhook. The right hand keeps thecrossface away.

If he tries to drive in while sprawling his leg, I push off on his neck and pull my feet towards my butt to

But hes smart and postures up and straightens his arm and rips it out, but because hes posturing and

freeing his arm, the threat of the crossface is gone and hes giving me access to his far knee.

I immediately dive under the leg with my right hand, bring my head to the thigh and gable grip my hands

together.

My knee is still on his hip to carry his weight. Im trying to bring my elbow and knee together to create a

frame against him.

Elbow and knee touching. Also notice how I have my feet crossed. The simple detail of my left being over

my right makes a huge difference in terms of how strongly I can hold him in my half guard.

My left arm becomes a shield to cover my head and hide my face so he cant crossface. Hell just slide off

the top of my head.

I scoot my hips underneath him and try to throw his weight to his front. Notice how this puts his weight on

his hands, making it hard for him to reach back and crossface. My elbow and knee are still touching, and

my elbow is now jamming into his ribs/stomach to keep his weight off.

I may need to open my ankles now as I rock him over me so my knee can carry his weight.

Notice how Im spreading his legs to disrupt his base as I pull his leg on my shoulder and scoot underneath

him.

7/12

My hips keep going under him by shrimping and bumping my shoulder under his leg and throwing my right

elbow to my left.

My right knee slides in under his thigh and keeps his hips up.

I stretch him away with my right knee under his thigh. My left leg comes up and steps on the inside of his

knee/thigh and pushes too. This puts his weight off of me and on to his far knee. It also creates space for

me to get on my left elbow.

The grip on the kneecap is important. Its a strong grip that prevents him from kicking his leg out and run

out of the sweep.

You can clearly see how my right knee/shin is creating space and where my left foot is going against his

knee.

Stretch my left leg to kick his leg away and scoot my hips out. Now Im carrying almost none of his

weight and have plenty of room to get all the way up on my hand. My right leg is stepping on the mat now

in preparation for a technical stand-up. The sweep from here is easy. Just stand up or come to your knees

and move towards him.

I was practicing this before class last week and my instructor was watching and then for the

technique in class he decides to show us a counter to the guy trying a kimura from bottom

half-guard.

The top man, steps his free leg over his arm to protect it and then sits his left hip on the ground

(assuming same positioning as in these photos) and then grips his own hand palm to palm and leans

into the bottom mans shoulder and lifts, it applies a kimura to the bottom man.

Needless to say i couldnt use this entry for DHG lately i have to wait until some people forget

this kimura counter
