I can't tell you how much I love this and the way you guys break this down. I've spent the last 30 years training with professional fighters and trainers. Foot work and proper positioning is fundamental to everything we do and teach. Whether you are in the ring or clearing a room, understanding kinesiology, economy of movement and movement with purposeful action is key to being successful. Great stuff guys!
5:09 BAHAHAHHAHA this is why u fucking love this content. Informative, long format, so I can hear you guys bounce ideas off each other using both of your experiences/expertises. And the funny gags in between and knee slapped jokes are what I am all here for.
20 years ago I stepped on yellow footprints on an Island in South Carolina. I am but a POG with some exceptional experience given a career of administrative oversights landing me in specialized infantry companies resulting in training with Recon and conducting operations with SEALs and Army SF in both Iraq and Afghanistan. To put it simply, I'm not a cool guy, but I've worked a lot with cool guys for awhile now. These videos have helped me put into words what I've known and said for the better part of 20 years. From clearing from outside the room to this video on footwork, I've always been able to demonstrate to friends and colleagues, but I've never been able to articulate it and quantify it so succinctly. Well done and I'm always proud to share your videos. Cheers, and keep up the excellent work!
Just thought you guys might like to know that I often refer to and direct others to your channel while preparing my classes here in Ukraine. To help my guys remember which foot to start with in regards to buttonhook or cross I tell them to think of the leg that's closest to the wall as a forward or reverse shifter..... If we are doing a buttonhook that means we will be going in the opposite direction therefore our wall side leg (shifter) will be in the reverse position .... and forward position before initiating a cross.... Just thought you might like to hear that you guys are being very well received and your work is highly appreciated
Lol yall had me rolling at 5:09 hahah. Everything else was serious and then boom! Love it and I love the good training you guys are great to watch and learn from!
I bought the GBRS group Tactical Triangle Cones and Frogman Million Mile Per Hour tape to practice this. They’re way better than regular cones and tape and a bargain at only $475.
This evening we did active shooter training with my department. I wish I would have seen this prior, as it cleaned up and made my movement smoother. Thank you for the information. Greatly appreciated!
Great video! I found it fascinating to see how similar the footwork and gun handling used in "tactical twister" are to practical/action competitive shooting. It makes sense that efficient movement and target engagement will have more similarities than differences, even when used in different applications and environments.
Great video and explanation. I like how you provided sound reasoning behind your tactics and added context for the continental United States. Great to see.
Sound foot work and gun manipulation are absolutely vital to fundamental room entry. It’s amazing how many people focus on so many other “tacticool” factors and neglect foot work and gun manipulation. Great video and knowledge transfer guys!
Many Teir 1 operators spend little time on "footwork" this tactical twister shit is for the birds. OTC is getting called out on this BS by guys who've done this in the real world.
@@arighteousname5882 I understand your point, especially about “guntubers” on social media. However, I am fortunate enough to train with some tier 1 operators down in Miami @conditiononegroup who absolutely value footwork upon entry into a room.
@Total Indoc I'd argue any citizen related operation would be covert and concealed making smaller guns like pistols, PDW, and SBRs way more relevant than any long rifle. Ideally any problem you'd need a full length rifle to solve could also be avoided. Maybe a QRF could use a rifle in case a group of concealed guys get caught up by Chinese Communist Invaders domestic or foreign. If you like being alive I recommend not doing anything out in the open unless there is no other option. This is all in Minecraft when the Chinese communists invade the homeland of course.
Hey, love your videos, can you please do a video about engaging targets while panning or entering ?(targets in the middle of the room and not on the deep corners) thanks
What I found interesting when practicing the footwork was that it felt very similar to what I used to do when I used to play football. I was a tight end and offensive tackle and the footwork was very similar if I had to do a pulling block or do a shift.
A long time ago some high level units actually hired NFL athletic coaches to teach them the most efficient way to move their feet. Some of this stuff comes directly from there.
I’d love to see a colab video with you guys and ronin tactics. I took so much of what he teaches by watching his videos and used it when I was teaching “CQB” classes at TBS.
When something so dynamic and intricate is explained by professionals, you know its done properly because now I think I can one man cqb with no issues.
Im not sure how new the info is here but another variation of the buttonhook I have seen involves essentially change-stepping after the threshold has been broken. While doing this the muzzle is pointing in the intended direction of travel. When done at fullspeed it allows entry to be made and space to be cleared very quick.
Very informative video guys . Question does the first man flip his safety to fire before entry or is he waiting until threat appears before flipping it hot.
At 11:53, something clicked with me from years of baseball camps, and being a lead-off runner. You're talking about hips moving, but let me suggest, if you're angling your hips--which you should--and crossing your feet, a good pickoff move will have you dead to rights. With crossed feet you can't get out of the way of a surprise. You can't dive back to 1st base on the leadoff. I'd suggest, basically, bringing your feet to a "center", not crossing them during your 'pie', and yet maintain equilibrium, so you can get to cover if someone starts shooting through the door. Don't cross your foot. Take smaller steps during the pie and you can move in either direction in case the threat is exposed and sends fire. In baseball, we'd do that in case the pitcher decided a quick pickoff to first. Seems to me, similar idea. Someone is trying to pick you off from a secured space. It's how I do training with others and seems to work. Does my text description make sense? Basically, don't cross your feet...in case.
I would disagree. That’s a pan, not a pie, it’s a rapid movement. Small steps and not crossing the feet at any point defeats the purpose of the technique.
@@oriontraininggroupllc2782 Wish I'd have seen your reply a bit ago. The thing that I'm suggesting as an old ballplayer was the steps at 11:50 and how it resembled a lead off. Getting your feet crossed up as you stepped off from 1st base left you vulnerable to a snap pick-off. Since your feet are crossed over you can't move one way or another very rapidly. So, rather than cross your feet on the lead off, just bring them to shoulder width and "stutter step". Collapsing a door seems to be like a lead off position. If you cross your feet then see the bad guy, you lose seconds getting out of the way of incoming rounds because of crossed feet. Hopefully that makes sense the way I described it. It's just, be biometrically ready to move in case of emergencies.
Did you post a video of dealing with far threats (I.e. room with an open door or window with another room that may have threats), dealing with covering threats from a hallway while entering a room, and what to do you do after clearing a room (I.e. communication and where you go next)?
What no one has made a video on.. is what if the target knows you are at the threshold already and ready to combat you..? Is there something done differently then or is it the same?
8:19 THIS!!!! Watch this section especially. The OTG boys can’t stress enough the importance of this section. Breaking the rifle over the shoulder (or under arm) while breaching that doorway. Dead space has NO CHANCE!
If SOPs don’t dictate flowing, buttonhooking, or heavy side entry and it was all up to the number 1 man; I feel like I would have to anticipate the 1 man’s move if I was the number 2 man. But obviously you can guess wrong if you are anticipating. Any tips for the number two man on how to read the number 1 man while limiting time and distance?
Keep your head up and read the orientation of the shoulders and hips. Look how his body language is different between button hooking and and straight in. By the first step in, you can see his hips orienting to the direction he's intending to go. You are right on his ass, and ass soon as his body clears your path of movement, you are making entry opposite.
The above comment is right, but also, make an SOP on general movement without making it so concrete that it’s hindering individual ability to make decisions
I’m an airsofter and I’m always watching cqb videos to learn more and better improve. From a different cqb vid I’ve seen them recommend you transition your rifle to your other hand if the enemy’s in the right hand corner. They’ve also recommended you clear as much of the room from outside of the room before crossing the threshold. May be a dumb question but is it better to transition to your off hand to clear the corners and clear the room before you go inside? Or rather just clear the two corners (say it’s a center fed room) from outside and THEN go inside and clear the other corners?
ayoooo i just came across your comment, also an airsofter as well. But i completely agree with the idea of clearing a room as much as possible before crossing the threshold. It makes sense considering it limits the factors of bad guys being in the general area before you clear deep corners. That being said, it also makes sense to clear as much as possible outside the room, in case if someone was in the centre (for example) you get hit, but now you can be pulled back from members, or at LEAST have some sort of cover. Was cool coming across your comment!
why when youre doing a buttonhook is the first step into the room with your left foot (at 9:00 for example) instead of the right foot? It seems like if you were going to flow into the room going in the same direction the first foot in should be the right foot? It feels like youre crossing your legs with the buttonhook. great video
@@oriontraininggroupllc2782 Sorry, I'm not native English. I mean, when you compress ready with your pistol, why do you compress it to your left when the door is on your right. Is it a personal preference or is there a reason? Because for me it seems more logical to leave it on your right side (since the door is on the right)
To be honest, to satiate most of our needs and to aid in our understanding I need to see how Swat/DOD/police video breakdowns - implements it irl. Sort of like mike Glover does his vids
Why was the guy entering the room so close to the door frame? Before he entered the room any one inside the room would have seen his barrel before he entered. Trying to understand the logic
I’ve had people tell me that the bent wrist over-the-shoulder rifle position isn’t right …it’s not a stable firing position and also you can’t get an accurate shot off from there. As opposed to just keeping it slightly collapsed inside your armpit at most and staying over your rifle optic. Regiment tends to do it this way. I’d like to put this debate to rest and figure out why which is better or worse
The way that you’ve set yourself up in the threshold for entry, your angle of approach if you will, allows you to enter without breaking your buttstock from your shoulder. So why still do it?
During your buttonhook, simply backing up from the threshold about a foot would have prevented the muzzle from protruding and you can keep the buttstock in contact with your shoulder.
@@ericpowers2711 1. You can’t always make a wide movement if you are in a tight hallway. 2. If you are the number two man and your buddy is already flowing in, you can’t sacrifice time to make wider turn. You need to be on your buddy’s ass to cover the opposite side.
His first approach through the threshold wasn’t a buttonhook. And went path of least resistance. Still compressed the rifle and removed the buttstock from his shoulder. I understand it’s a technique when dealing with really tight quarters, however if it’s not warranted I’d venture to say it shouldn’t be your default technique. And that hallway they’re working in appears wide enough to allow the one man to take a step back as he buttonhooks so as to not have his rifle protruding into the room, or worse and in the case of the example given, leading with his face.
@@ericpowers2711 that is a method as well. But it would classify as a “center check”, and not a button hook. which they have a video on as well, their curriculum is about being flexible and learning all the methods to do something so you don’t limit yourself. These videos are purely isolations to show the different methods of doing things. When flowing path of lease resistance, he still short stocks because the point isn’t just to fit the gun through the threshold, it’s also to deliver your eyes,muzzle, optic, arms and foot together so you don’t give any pre fight indicators. And for those of us that run suppressors, short stocking is almost always a necessity. but they still tech that keeping the gun shouldered, flowing in more of a 45 degree through the threshold and snapping to your point of domination is a method too. They are all tools that can be used based on mission and situation.
Pre fight indicators? You’re entering a room with the intent to potentially hurt someone. Your default technique should reflect that. And entering with your buttsock mounted to your shoulder does not require you to enter with your weapon and body moving through the threshold at a 45. And your rifle held at a depressed muzzle does not restrict your vision as much as you would think.
Footwork = bull-shit + the opening seems wider than a normal doorway. Why isn't there are a door? Probably because as soon as you present a real door, that foot work mumbo jumbo goes right out the window. CQB is conceptual not technical, the more you do it, the more you realize it.
The first room u were clearing, you would also be yelling out short room because of how small the room is . That way you ain't got 3 or 4 dudes cluster fxked in a tiny room.

When something so dynamic and intricate is explained by professionals, you know its done properly because now I think I can one man cqb with no issues.
So you visually cleared the right side why would you continue in that direction if the left hand isn’t cleared yet?
Exactly. Literally turning his back to 95% of a unchecked room. Makes zero sense. Back would be blown out.
The context is 2-man room clearing. The 2 man hits the opposite corner as soon as you clear the doorway
