Sweeps

[CyberFreq]

Don't know if this is the actual name for it , but I like the kimura sweep. Going for the kimura, you can't get it so you keep their arm trapped and sweep 'em.

Hip bump/sit up sweep.

Very effective, I love it.

My current favorite sweep is actually one from DLR.

Sit up, pull their far arm between their legs and grab with your inside hand, use your outside hand to grab shoulder/lapel/belt and roll over the trapped arm.

Man the only feeling better then landing an effortless sweep is landing an effortless throw. Neither is as easy as they look.
Great videos.

I'm a big fan of this sweep as well and I use it as a counter for when they counter the back take from DLR by pressuring in on my legs. Great sweep!

Does it have a name perchance?

I've actually never heard a name for it. I'm sure it's called something, but I dunno! Hopefully someone can chime in with it's name.

I really like the hip bump. I pull guys in, threatening something or other. They push back and posture up, and while they're moving backwards I just follow them up.

Andreh's DVD is really good!

He doesn't just teach sweeps, but the underlying principles of balance and timing that actually make them work. I studied the video for a week and made noticeable improvements on sweeps that have been hard for me in the past. He also teaches techniques in a series so you have options depending on what your opponent gives you. Best $30 you'll spend if you want to improve your closed guard sweep game.

Here's the thread all about it:

The greatest sweep is The Roleta sweep. He has pulled it off against opponents like Saulo Ribeiro.
