Love your videos and commentary! Would love to see a detailed breakdown of your side-smash, knee-cut A/B system. I really appreciate not just the explanation of what you are doing right, but also highlighting the mistakes your partner makes that provide the correct situation for executing a specific move.
I appreciate the tip so much my friend thank you 🙏 Very kind and generous of you. You made my day! That video will be the next video 100%. I'm glad people like the new editing I've been adding. I'm doing everything I can to keep improving :)
I honestly can’t say enough how grateful I am for 1. How high level you Jiu Jitsu is and you sharing it but 2. How damn good you are at explaining things.. you’ve helped my Jiu Jitsu so much more than I ever would’ve thought a video could! So again thanks for these!!
Really dig this video. This is the first time I have heard of “headquarters” and the passing options it offers. Would love to see a video deep dive on headquarters, how to get there, and how to transition to side smash or knee slice passes. 👊🏽
There's just so much in this video. I had to watch more than once with the audio off so I could follow along with the captions alone. Appreciate the details!
Thx for showing correct or incorrect examples in secondary windows, super helpful. Often instructors only say it, leaving audience to visualize. Same happened when I started watching Danaher, he would pause what he was saying to twll the camera to come around, allowing audience to see directly rather than visualize due to visual obstruction. These video techniques are excellent for visual learners and memorization, and allows for correct drilling rather than having to speculate if something is right. There’s no substitute for in-person training, but I find good videos allows for concept and positional drilling alone at home between classes. As always, thx so much for sharing 🙏🏻
Been binge watching your videos over the last week or so. I'm a 2 stripe white belt, and alot of what you say is in line with what my instructor says as well. Glad to know I'm being taught well and will continue to refer back to and watch your videos regularly. Thank you!!
Excellent content as always Jordan! Really liked the paused highlights of key information such as the failure to keep Trex arms/go for the underhook! We all appreciate the time and effort you are putting into these detailed and super useful videos!
these rolling commentary videos help me so much! Instead of just individual techniques, these broader concepts explained and shown in real life make so much more sense! Thank you for your work! It's my dream to come train some day :D
I appreciate it :) Glad you enjoy them :) Still blows my mind people are still posting individual technique videos and hoping to have success on youtube. It's way over saturated now.
I've been trying A-B system lately, and have been able to pass every bluebelt in the room almost instantly. (I'm 6months blue) Great passing plan Jordan. Thanks a lot. 🤙amazing how your knowledge sharing changes people's games on the other side of the planet. Oss
Really helpful video. The break down into intermediate passing positions was particularly useful. Once again, really love how you give us your jiujitsu steam of consciousness through the moves. A knee-slide/side-smash system video would be awesome!
I would love to see more of this passing system. I am currently a 4 stripe white belt and really guard centred, because I do not have a structured guard passing system! Thanks for the video!
my goto is the knee cut. slide your knee over their thigh near their knee for the extra leverage. biggest problem is remembering to get the under hook on the far side. i used to rush and do like a knee slide but stop with your staple their bottom leg and then work on the underhook. also look into the leg weave pass. iyou smash their legs like he did in this one but you pass to either side depending no which way they try to push your head. tkae the path of least resistance
I love headquarter, one of the most effective passing position. I'm just a white belt but my game improved so much when I understood the importance to have a good posture when you want to pass
The knee cut/smash A/B system is my go to move and works so well! I'm glad you covered this! I usually counter knee slice with reverse de la riva then go into deep half or kiss of dragon, but I find myself stuck in RDR when higher belts don't give me enough room to move or stuffing my knee. I would love to learn how you counter knee slice and side smash passes! Thanks again Jordan!
Would love the side smash/knee shield video. I find when I go to pass I find it hard on certain grapplers that are super aggressive from the bottom, how would you deal with this ? A video on dealing with aggresive BJJ would be good.
Great video. Again so much more important to understand the concept of the tight elbows. T. rex arms rock! I had a jiujitsu tournament last week and my knee shield half guard was virtually unpassable. I just kept my elbows glued to my sides and they couldn’t get through Those T. rex arms are so easy to understand. Thanks Jordan!
Your videos are so high quality and I really appreciate all the hard work you put into them. They have really helped improve my understanding of jiu jitsu. So many videos out there just show you different submissions but you cover the other 90% of what happens in a roll that leads to the sub. May I suggest a video on the arm in and arm out guillotine in the future? Thanks brotha!
Underhooks are KING especially in no gi, you can improvise many grips in the gi to serve control like an underhook but nothing like that exists in no gi so the underhook rules as the positional control grip as well as to escape from bad bottom positions
Great stuff, man. I was just talking to someone at open mat today about some of these concepts and this is the perfect thing to send them for elaboration. Thanks for creating such awesome learning resources!
Please do more positional concepts with multiple options depending on reactions like that. I get into these battles all the time as a blue belt and you help my journey soooo much. You are doing great. Thank you Jordan!
Thank you so much your training videos are very helpful since you explain the principles like don't let then get under hooks and how jujitsu is grips and hand fighting. Those two and this guard passing video has helped my game immensely. I look forward to more videos with explanations of concepts and principles like how when passing someone's guard you want to flatten their upper body things like that that'll make me understand what I'm trying to do to accomplish the goal thanks again
Wow, I just had a private lesson covering the side smash and knee slide. I'd love to see you break them down in a separate video. Keep up the great work. Going to your patreon right now.
It’s finally here! Amazing job on the video and clarity of the details. 🔥 HQ is hands down my favorite place to be. If they give up the underhook they’re also giving up a free knee slice. As for a positional round I’d like to see you do next, I would like to see your back escapes in full action, since I’m currently working on that for the next few months, along with body triangle escapes. 😂
Excellent. I think I give up the underhook way too much. I would take you up on a video showing more in depth passing. I need it. Your videos have helped me more than any others. Thank you Jordan!
I would love an in depth look at that combo! I use the knee slide all the time but kind of just wing it whenever a knee shield comes in or something stops my slide.
Please make a video about the passing system. I’ve seen the same thing done by Craig Jones but for some reason, after using it a couple times against high level players with great results, I having a ton of difficulty using it on anyone, so I know I’m missing details. I love your stuff man, thank you so much
Absolutely would like to see videos on some A/B systems and the side smash. This one was great as well. I struggle sometimes knowing effective ways to enter and pass the guard
please make a video on passing i love the “dilemma “ in a given position where the opponent can’t “escape” he just gets to choose how he gonna get passed
Great content as always! T-Rex arms are SO important!! Thanks for driving this point home like you did in this video. It’s finally getting through my stubborn head. The instinct to reach is so detrimental to my guard game and it’s starting to click for me after seeing this 🤙🤙🤙
I struggle a lot against the knee shield when I go for a knee slice against my training partners, especially against much bigger guys. This video has great insights and value. So the video about A/B system passing would be a game changer for me!
Side smash video would be really useful.As would knee cut! Would be great to see what your choices are depending on how your partner sets up at start of roll! Thanks for all your great content!
I love countering entries to knee slide with an armdrag. I want to try a reverse armdrag in case people keep tight elbows while entering to see if this works.
Great vid! Yea, an in depth vid of the knee slide/side smash system would be 💯 Been trying it but there’s some technical part that I’m missing. If you could include a few secs detailing HQ position it would be next level.
Sick video man. Thanks. These are the real keys to learning this game. Positional passes and the terminology of mini positions. Would be great to see all these positions. Also are there counter attacks. ?
Glad it was helpful! The counters are pretty limited for when the person gets the underhook for both people, the one and top and bottom. Unless the bottom person manages to get a quarter guard then there's still hope for them haha.
The knee slide system and dealing with knee shield/half guard would be great. The top blue belt at my gym is really good at keeping the shield up and I can’t seem to execute the knee slide correctly without getting my leg caught.
Still adjusting to using pressure passing (4 stripe white belt). Around 190-200 lbs. I am getting better at it when it comes to people around my own size but don't have the control I need to use it against smaller, faster people. I tend to try to look for options like the stack pass against them. At this point also watching for opportunities to attack particularly from the bottom as I feel like I'm too static there. I think I need to just pick a few techniques and look for opportunities to attempt them. Particularly on lesser skilled opponents. Edit: I too would like to see knee slide and side smash video. I want to include the knee slide more in my passing game.
The back definitely I'd love to do. The mount is a little harder to see what's going on because people are so tight. I tried once and the video didn't turn out great. Maybe because it was gi though. Maybe nogi would be easier to see :)
Would love to see the a b system for knee slide versus leg smash. Honestly I would like to see your most effective a b systems. Ex. Hip bump sweep from closed guard to Kimura. Thanks for these videos. Extremely helpful 👍
In depth overview would be amazing 🎉 not just your a b game passes but possibly a b c & (z for a misdirection pass that will catch them off guard if they are focused on defending a b c passes.)
Video on Headquarters please. I have trouble approaching someone’s open guard or someone who pulls guard because our coach has us starting on our feet. Foot placement for the butterfly maybe, They just walk around my legs when I try open guard
At the sequence of you attempting a side smash from HQ at 5:20 - as your training partner commits to realigning his hips to face you, would this point be a good time to attempt to hit an over / under pass as there is so much free space between his legs? I love said pass and always looking for ways to hit it!

you should look up ffion davies in the mean time :)
@@DB98000 Thank you for that. I just looked her up. I had not heard of her, but she is excellent!
Also look into Andrew wiltses free knee slice instructional on bjjfanatics, all the information you need on headquarters there
@@consciousnessofkane4155 Just grabbed it. Thank you very much!
I second this.
Thank you for your channel - thankful from a middle age guy who started gi jits just 2y deep
There's just so much in this video. I had to watch more than once with the audio off so I could follow along with the captions alone. Appreciate the details!
Glad you enjoyed this one :) There's lots of info in the captions and the best way is definitely to watch more than once!
In-depth view of the system? Yes please!
Thank you so much for this.
Definitely will do soon. Thank you for watching!

Yes, I'd love to see a video about good A/B systems in general!
Yeah, make a video of the side smash knee slide techniques from head quarters. Looks like some great passing tools to use.
Definitely will do soon!
You have an amazing channel Jordan. Thank you for being generous with your hard earned knowledge.

That's a great idea and generally I would recommend pressure passing guys like that too slow them down.
Would love to see a session on the headquarters pass setup!
Your videos are informative and detailed. As a white belt these videos have helped me tremendously. Thank you.
Glad to hear that. Happy to help 🙂
Great video. Again so much more important to understand the concept of the tight elbows. T. rex arms rock!
I had a jiujitsu tournament last week and my knee shield half guard was virtually unpassable. I just kept my elbows glued to my sides and they couldn’t get through
Those T. rex arms are so easy to understand.

Amazing video. Great job with the tips. And the small videos as demonstration help alot for vizualization of the possible moves. Keep it up!
I for one would like to see a video on headquarters and on the side smash/ knee slice . This was awesome thanks
Wow, I just had a private lesson covering the side smash and knee slide. I'd love to see you break them down in a separate video. Keep up the great work. Going to your patreon right now.
謝謝！
Seriously man great video I gave up on the knee slice but it was probably just bc I wasn’t keeping my elbow in. Thank you good sir
Glad it helped! The knee slide is amazing. Definitely keep working it :)
I would definitely love an in depth version of this video!

Great video as always! A video on your head quarters passing system would be amazing 🤩
Coming soon!
side smash knee slide is an interesting combo. i will have to look into the side smash more.

I'd like to see more positional vids escaping bad positions, your side control video is gold, I'd love to see mount and/or back!
The back definitely I'd love to do. The mount is a little harder to see what's going on because people are so tight. I tried once and the video didn't turn out great. Maybe because it was gi though. Maybe nogi would be easier to see :)
Thanks for the awesome video Jordan!👊

Video on Headquarters please. I have trouble approaching someone’s open guard or someone who pulls guard because our coach has us starting on our feet. Foot placement for the butterfly maybe, They just walk around my legs when I try open guard
I was just working on this today and wish I had that elbow inside the knee! The knee frame was really preventing me
How do you usually deal with defensive frames? I saw your opponent do one at 4:15 and I’m having trouble getting past them sometimes
A learn a lot from this channel , thank You for Your work

I love said pass and always looking for ways to hit it!
100% would have been a great opportunity for the over under pass. One of. My favorites too!
This is great! Can you consider doing a video about escaping from bottom side control?
I have one on that in nogi but have to do a more in-depth video with Gi too soon
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu that's great! I'll go find it from your library of videos :)
