ok I just purchased the new Eddie bravo book and here is my review. I dont know where this thread should be so I figured grappling and not Equipment.
**COVER**
First thoughts on picking up the book was that it looked well made. The pages werent colored but that doesnt matter to me.
**INTRO**
Had a really nice introduction about Eddies life. How he came up through the Ju-Jistu world and then it goes into a detailed bit about abu dabi 2003 where he submitted Royler Gracie as a Brown Belt
**TECHNIQUES**
He has some really good stuff about his half guard, x-guard and several cool sweeps ive never seen before. Then it moves into a huge section about the rubber guard and butterfly guard with some cool submissions and sweeps. THen it goes into his infamous twister sidecontrol and twister submissions. THere were also many transitions from the twister to about 5-6 other techniques..
I havent had a chance to study the book into great detail yet but so far it is great. Lots of new stuff
8/10
