- Most of us found out about jiu-jitsu by watching a young, lanky, expressionless Brazilian named Royce Gracie somehow defeat opponents using little movements we couldn’t comprehend via a VHS cassette. This is typical in the US; however, jiu-jitsu was already seeded for years in Brazil, so it was interesting to find out that Lucas Leite learned about the art by watching that same cassette. Though this started him on his path and he was learning from Ryan Gracie, Lucas saw it as a hobby at best and quit for a year due to lack of motivation. Eventually he returned, but due to a family move, he decided to train under Leonardo Vieira and his future forever changed, as he is now at the highest level and a decorated competitor under Checkmat. A regular on the podium is awesome in itself, but considering that Lucas competes at heavyweight, two weight categories above his natural weight division (lightweight), makes it astounding! Recently on a beautiful warm, sunny day in Orange County, CA, we had the pleasure of chopping it up again with the 5x World Champion. Like he did in issue 3, Lucas showed us a variety of ways to work the half guard, as he’s known for it being his bread and butter because he’s so amazing at using the position. Once again we were treated to a plethora of amazing goodies and were like kids in a candy store with big wide eyes.

In this video Lucas demonstrates how to counter your opponent's knee slice attempt to pass, to a debilitating half guard sweep and then taking the back. Assisting him is his brown belt, Patricia Fontes.

Except your opponent won't try to knee-slice you that way, just rushing forward with no grips like a stooge in an aikido demonstration. Your opponent will get a nice, deep cross-collar grip before even attempting the knee-slice pass, and that is going to make it much easier for your opponent to control the distance (how much you can sit up towards him) and your angle (how much you can twist towards him). Obviously, a very good bottom player might be able to pull off the same mechanics even against a deep cross-collar grip, but it's going to be a lot harder and will involve a lot more struggle.
I've noticed knee-slice counter videos almost always involve an opponent making incorrect or no grips at all. I don't understand the logic of that because if the person has enough training to know what the knee-slice pass is, he is probably also going to know you're supposed to get a deep cross-collar grip (or underhook) first.
Having said that, I have been swept by my instructor by roughly these same mechanics (turn to the side, knee to the butt, etc.), but there is usually a struggle first because my cross-collar grip prevents him from being able to do this right away. It seems the trick is, when you're on bottom and your opponent is knee-slicing with a deep cross-collar grip, is you have to wait until the opponent is almost past your half guard to execute these movements because as the person on top gets closer and closer to passing, his right leg gets closer to where you can grab it, even if he is keeping you at a distance with the cross collar.
I still don't understand why knee-slice counter videos always assume the person on top will use either no grips or completely wrong grips.
no
people knee slice like that all the time lol
they will sometimes. i got passed by a similar knee-slice from a good black belt today.
