🔥 FFTT: A Kimura Trap Pendulum To Get On The Back

... and catch your opponents slippin'!

Welcome back to Tap Nap & Snap - the newsletter left wondering if the rise in footage of BJJ people taking down criminals is increasing because there’s more crime? More filming? Or more BJJ people? Either way, bad guys beware

Let's go! 🔥

Before We Hit The Mats … 🤼

Below 👇 you’ll find an Ad. These guys are the reason we can get this newsletter out week after week without needing to go all Netflix on you and charge some kind of monthly subscription. 🤢

We make a point to partner with cool brands that have something awesome to offer BJJ folks like you - so please, check it out! 🙏

This week's newsletter partner is Tyler with the epic Fighters Passport. 💪

Fighters Passport has been busy building these last months, so you can spend less time scrolling and more time rolling. 🔥

Since they were last here in this spot, they’ve managed to:

  • Add waivers so athletes can sign in super quickly and easily

  • Add an athlete journal to the app so you can track your training

  • Onboard a bunch more gyms to their network

Annnnd … soon, gyms will be able to link their Stripe accounts so athletes can pay before they get there, meaning more mat time for everyone. 🔥

Check em’ out!👇

Take An Express Trip To The Back 🚂👇

Freak For The Technique is our shorter fortnightly edition where we drop a solid move, sequence or idea that’s been working well on the mats lately so you can play with it and add it to your game! 

This week, we’ve filmed a quick one that can catch your opponent off guard and put you straight on the back! 😎 

From a strong figure-four grip in the bottom half guard, you can free your bottom leg and swing right around your opponent - dropping them into the pocket and throwing a top hook in. 🪝 

There is an easy counter, 😏 but there's a cool 'counter-counter' as well, which might make for a good future video! 🔥

Hit play on the video above to head over and check it out ⬆️ - and give us a like and subscribe if you’re feeling it! 🙏
