Learned this from Jay Wright 10 years ago at his clinic. Now I’m teaching the rip and go to 4th graders. Such an important concept to teach kids how to get to the rim and dribble with a purpose! Thanks Coach Wright!!
Jay Wright, led the instruction on this drill a few years back, his guards was experts in getting to the basket against defenders, only caution is that secondary defense into the paint sometimes resulting into Offensive fouls, so ensure your players have their head up after beating first defender.
We do close to the body. If you go low and you're playing a longer guy he can still get a hand on it. When you rip close to the body you are strongest.
+mikael sansone Most are travels on the high school level because of what you mentioned. A few like Archie do it correctly by catching with two feet on the floor making either foot the pivot.
@@Sequel7 hello from the future (well 3 years anyway) - I agree to an extent, but IMO it's a lost art.. Those few that have been taught the hop to the ball fundamental and can use it well (especially in strong denial defence situations ) are unpredictable and very difficult to guard (having either foot as a pivot option).... gives the offensive player many more options to be aggressive and drive (or shoot)... Also you will get opportunities to better use the defenders momentum against them, especially if they've created some initial separation by using a traditional v-cut, which will typically make the defence scurry that little bit extra to try and recover to apply ball pressure ... ... I guess it's really "horses for courses" though, but IMO the more tools you have in the shed the more difficult you are to guard ...
One of the best instructional basketball videos I’ve seen on RUclips. This is old-school, this is SIMPLE, and this is effective. Steak & Potatoes.

Awesome drill! This is my kind of basketball!
My coach says that it's called sweeping jays
this coach says to rip close to the body. I watched a video with a coach saying to rip under the knee. so wich one is it?
Cat Squad Below the knees is better

Also close to the body draws more fouls as the defender will reach
Yes.
This is my fav move

Have these guys heard of a hop travel? If they're hop stepping they need to place both feet down simultaneously after the hop,
they won 2 national championships in the last few years doing this . call it what you like
isn't that a lot of traveling? they often establish the high foot as pivot. then travel.
+mikael sansone Some are, but it's very subtle and in a game will not be called. It's not really a big deal.

no one really hop steps like that anymore
@@Sequel7 that was my question....is this way old school, I dont see any players hoping like that anymore???
