homie control

There are a few extended videos at https://www.10thplanetjj.com/techniques-archive/ but there isn’t much from 10th Planet on Youtube.

This isn’t my favorite video from Coach Brian. It gets extended a bit by his coaching of the young camera operator. It’s probably the best I’ve found:

I found a second one:

Here is Giancarlo Bodoni showing it from full guard:

I don’t know what happened to part 3. I didn’t find it on Youtube.

Here’s Eddie Bravo doing it at high speed, ending with the transition to spider web. He points out that he prefers the head control rather than the shoulder crunch. I do too. Gordon Ryan, the best in the world, prefers the shoulder crunch variant. It is not clear to me what Gordon gains from his approach compared to the head and arm. I’m sure there’s something there, but I don’t see it.

Since the other elements of the pinch headlock/homie control are covered in the other videos, here’s some help with the swim move:

I appreciate the comments at the end about not doing the move to the guy. It’s in line with the Rabbit Season Duck Season concept. Put yourself in position to help the move happen when your opponent asks for it.
