Terere pass?

[Armwrap]

Could someone more knowledgeable break down the Terere pass for me? I have not seen any instructionals covering this pass other than in Galvaos book.

Pass looks like reverse half guard pass like in this Draculino video but it is done without stepping to half first.

I attended Michael Langhi seminar and I saw him pass everyones guard with this pass. Unfortunately I was a little too eager and injured myself before he taught the pass. What I remember is that he used to really change levels and bury his head low.

Langhi vs Sugie, 4:00

Langhi vs Michel Maia 2:35

Anyone use this? Grips, tips or other advice. Thanks!

I was at a Terere seminar and he did that pass to everyone at sparring (altough he didn't teach this move)

It's becoming one of my go-to passes.

You can do it from half, combat base, I even see ppl do it from de la riva.


(*I'm not good at explaining it in text*) If I'm passing to my left and am in combat base:
-my right hand is controlling his left leg (I also do it controlling the left hip or left lapel)
-i switch my hips so that my left knee is gonna go to his right hip, and my head goes to his left shoulder (keeping him from coming up)
-i like to crossface the shit out of his face with my left arm/shoulder.
-backstep/kick my right leg out
-stay as flat on the mat as possible

everything is done simultaneously...it's a fast pass. works great in conjunction with the knee slice pass.

there's a thread on it way back in 2005 here:
The Terere Pass

Any instructional links??? I can't watch vids at work, but will check it when I get home to make sure I know which pass you are referring to.

Robson Moura does the same thing, but your right hand grabs low on his left pant leg and extends it away as you backstep. In my experience, this keeps them from following your leg with a hook.

Leo Santos and the Mendes' also really like this pass.

A lot of Jacare's guard passes are this pass. He does it so quick that it's hard to tell what's actually going on.

Thats awesome watched the vids. I usually pass like this but from half guard, I'm gonna try passing guard like this from now on.

Could someone post those vids here? The nhbgear page isn't opening for me

I didn't see any vids on the nhb page, just someone who trained w/ him describing the pass.

Could someone post the description?:redface:

I've been trying this pass the way Langhi does it (from a not totally secured HG position), but I always fine myself being reversed. I'm definitely doing something wrong.

How far along are you being reversed? I take it you mean after you're flat on the mat and almost passed..if so then make sure you are giving them hell with your shoulder of justice and keeping a lot of pressure on their farside upper leg/thigh with your other arm. These two details really prevent them from being able to bridge over to reverse you.

It's actually just as I initiate the pass. They just shoulder roll over.

I feel like it's a really stupid detail I'm missing.

This doesn't help you very much but this pass was how he got Roger to turtle in his famous match where he almost choked Roger out.

 

[metatronics]

in regards to the grip controlling the leg, putting pressure on the leg is good, but specifically trying to keep their foot off the floor will prevent them from pushing off the ground to turn into you. this must be done in conjunction with the cross and keeping your head flush to them (because your head/neck area is the best place for them to push to stop you, following by your right shoulder when passing to your left).

Looks exactly like the "negative X-pass" that Saulo Ribeiro shows in his JiuJitsu revolution 2. (Incidentally, Langhi passes Sugie in your first video using the regular X-pass right after his attempt at the negative X-pass you are showing... exactly how Saulo says you should chain your pass--if X-pass doesn't work, go for negative X-pass and vice versa).

Basically the hardest part is committing to the pass and falling down to the other side, because it feels like you are giving up position, but you are not. And if you are passing to your left with your right hand holding on to his left leg, keeping your right arm straight out is important.

Sorry, looked but couldn't find a video.
