The butterfly guard is a very powerful position, but if you know what to do, then you can defend the sweep, smash the guard, and take the back. This technique from the Rolling Backtakes for Everyone instructional (https://www.grapplearts.com/rollingbacktakes) is one of my very favorite ways to do just that, and if I can do it as a 54-year-old man with a hip replacement, then you can do it too!

If you’re caught in a fully applied heel hook you should tap, but IF you catch it early, hide your heel, and strip the grip off your foot you can hit him with a sweet rolling backtake and choke him out! From Rolling Backtakes for Everyone, available at https://www.grapplearts.com/rollingbacktakes

Rolling backtakes have become part of modern jiu-jitsu, but they’re undeniably intimidating. Here’s the simplest one you can do: just learn to identify the trigger position (3/4 mount), make sure his hands are on one side of your body, and then roll on the other side. There are many details, tweaks, and variations that we’ll cover at some point in the future, but I just want to get you hitting this move so that you learn to believe in it. Let me know how this goes!

Over the last few years, I have won quite a few rolling backtake battles. All because of one reason. I understood the central micro battle in the transition, and that often led to opportunities to either reverse the backtake or at least kill the threat..

And you’ll learn that same lesson in this video.

BJJ black belt Matt Kwan breaks down his double leg bundle rolling backtake. Check out https://www.grapplearts.com/modern-jiu-jitsu-berimbolos-crab-rides-and-rolling-back-takes/ for more of Matt Kwan sharing his modern style of jiu-jitsu!

Recently I posted a video of myself and some tough BJJ Black Belts rolling and training before the No Gi Pans.

There were several techniques used in the video that many of you had questions about.

So I’ll go through and answer the technique related questions you have about the roll.

In this video I cover one of the Guard passing back take combinations I used during the training.

It starts with a Double Under Pass variation and then moves into a rolling back take from the, often called, Truck position from 10th Planet.

You may not call it the Truck, but for the sake of the video, it’s what we’ll use.

I also share the progression of the move and where it came from. As I originally used the Truck position and the rolling back take from other positions like Mount and Turtle first.’

If you were interested in this technique from the previous video, or want a Guard passing back take chain of techniques. Than I hope this video is helpful.

Chew on that. 😉

We received a question about hitting a rolling back take in BJJ vs the person on the bottom playing from an open guard.

In this video I show 2 different ways to get to Back Mount in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu via some sort of rolling technique.

The 1st technique is 1 of my all time favorites! It’s the Rolling Kimura Back Take.

This is setup against a Butterfly Guard. I’ve hit this techniques on incredibly high level practitioners so I’m comfortable sharing it with you guys as a high percentage technique.

The second is a basic roll from Quarter Mount position. That’s the position in Brazilian Jiujitsu where they are kind of just hanging on the ankle.

Both of these BJJ techniques can get you to the Back Mount position, look cool, but are fairly easy to execute.

Hope the techniques help if you have that question!

Jose commented on a recent video asking about a Butterfly Sweep to Rolling Back Take combo that was in the video.

So while I was working on videos for my new White Belt series. I wanted to answer his question.

I’ve placed chunks of the BJJ class where Adam and I were rolling. In the video I countered his reverse Half Guard position and switched it into a Butterfly Sweep. I attempted to sweep him to one side, it failed so I came back up to a square position. Then I switched the Butterfly sweep to the other side.

Right after the sweep he shot into a Deep Half Guard. I countered this by keeping my hips back which caused us to land in a Quarter Mount position.

From there I did a very simple rolling back take. Literally, it’s a glorified front roll. So if you try this move. Don’t over think it.

When you watch these techniques being used. It seems that it’s some sort of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu combo that I have because they flow together smoothly.

But it isn’t! What happens often during Brazilian Jiujitsu is that you do moves based on the circumstances. Your opponent does this, so you do this. That kind of thing.

This is just a situation where I’ve done the Ghost Sweep (as I call it) countless times as well as the forward roll to the back. The moves connected together without any sort of grand design. I didn’t plan on taking the back when I initiated the sweep.

Lastly, in the video I share a few quick details on attacking the rear naked choke right off the back. Instead of just getting to back mount and holding. I really like coming in for the finish right off the bat.

Thanks for the question Jose! And I hope the video is useful to any of you playing from the Butterfly Guard or if you get caught in the Quarter Mount / Quarter Guard position.
