Passing the guard of an extremely flexible player can be really annoying.
You get close to passing and they simply flip upside down, put their feet on the floor, and taunt you from their strange inverted guard position.
Some gumby players go even further and develop an entire attacking game from this inverted guard, sometimes also known as the tornado guard.
It may look strange but it works. And if you don’t have an answer to it then you’re going to get swept all over the place or even submitted by this strategy.
In this short video 6th degree black belt Fabio Gurgel shows you exactly how he smashes inverted guard in several different configurations.
His club in San Paulo Brazil has produced 57 different BJJ world champions – including a lot of young killers who play this flexibility based game – so you know that his pressure-based approach has worked against the very best guys in the world.
P.S. This technique was just one small part of the guard passing instructional that I did with Fabio Gurgel.
It’s amazing and will totally transform your guard passing game.
