- Use this inversion backstep from failed sumi gaeshis, as a standalone leg entry, or to sweep if they overcommit to keeping the leg out of reach. Bonus Gordon Ryan match breakdown of a similar backstep entry.

I saw several entries like this in the previous ADCC and this was a perfect quick breakdown of what was going on. I’ll start using it immediately. Thank you so much!
Hope it helps!
This is my favorite tool while rolling. Keeps distance, gives bottom an easy sweep, and super effective in leg lock entry. Thanks for the breakdown!
Glad you liked it 🙏🔥
Really helpful, the off balancing to allow inversion through the initial sumi gaeshi attempt from butterfly half is a great tip!
Glad you found it helpful! 🔥 thanks for the comment
Really cool breakdown! Would really like to see how you use the far side arm drag to create elevation to get underneath your opponent
Keep it up!
Thanks for the video idea 💡 🔥
Nice video! I’m playing with the Aoki on the second leg from here currently, the control of the primary leg with your hips in cross makes it a really tight sub, and you can always trade off to clover or the primary leg for a heel
🔥🦵
Great breakdown. Always wondered how this was accomplished. Thank you!
Glad it helps! Thanks for the comment
This is fantastic! I have been hitting cross-ashi entry from butterfly shit and then reverse X. Gotta add this to my arsenal.
Go snatch some legs 🦵 🔥 thanks for the comment 🙏
straight to the point, showing all the right details and the reasons behind them. this was awesome! btw, that grip on the shoelaces from butterfly half at 2:50 is there anything we can do with that grip from regular knee shield? i often go for the underhook on the leg when im playing knee shield but it could be nice to try to play around with that deeper grip on the shoelaces
Yes, you can use the shoelace grip to enter Irimi ashi (from butterfly half) or mutual ashi (from knee shield half) on the far leg, just as you could do from a scoop grip on the same leg. You can also use it from a lower leg shift w/ underhook to do an ankle pick type of reversal.
Nice! Hope to see your channel blow up
Much appreciated! That makes 2 of us 😅🙏
Really great video and great skills.
Thank you!
Fantastic... I just subed. Looking forward to your other videos.
Thanks! I’m excited to keep making them.
Very nice technique. This is the athletic version of a Gordon Ryan kind of entry, the suddenness of it is going to make it very hard to defend.
Thx for the video! Very helpful
Glad it helped!
Good stuff!
Super well done video. Subbed. Wondering what instructionals you learned from for this stuff if I want to dive deeper? 🙏
Gordon Ryan and John Danaher guard instructionals as well as private lessons with New Wave guys.
@@flowtheorygrapplingawesome thanks a lot
Very nice
Thanks for the comment! Hope you found the video useful.
Any guides on how to get flexible and more comfortable with inverting? I have been trying to stretch daily
but really struggling to gain anything. (Tall stiff white belt)
Practice being able to touch your knees to your shoulders. A lot of it is hip mobility.
Also work on being able to do back rolls slower and slower (basically being able to touch your toes or knees to the mat behind you, while laying down).
It’s mostly just doing more moves that require the motion.
The practice of the inversion-type moves is what gives you flexibility more than static stretching ever could, in my experience.
Hope that helps. If you keep working and studying the details of guard play, it will come in time. Thanks for the comment. I will try to make a video on the topic eventually.
@@flowtheorygrappling Thank you
Jacob Couch does a very similar style of this entry...
legit thanks
Happy to help!
good
Thank you
Happy to help!
Tank you 🤙
My pleasure! Thanks for the comment 🙏
Sumi is my best throw but I mainly compete in IBJJF tournaments where you cant do heel hooks as a blue. Can you hit a good ankle lock from that position?
Ankle locks are low percentage from cross ashi. I recommend using the position to heist up for a sweep. Reference Gordon Ryan 2018 pans or worlds matches before IBJJF legalized heel hooks.
when they are pressuring into you, what muscles and motion are you using to roll him over so easily? it looks like it would be hard to roll them over feom that position. is it just momentum and your leg chopping down with alot of force?
I will do a more detailed video about how to get your opponent to a hip when they’re on their knees from cross ashi.
There is an important series specifically from there.
@daletron303030 I just made a video on this if you're interested. I think you'll find it helps with your above question.

@@flowtheorygrappling awesome gonna watch right now!
I'm going to Austin in March, can I go visit the gym? I am from Brazil
Hi! We're located in north Houston (about a 2 and a half hour drive from Austin), but yes. Feel free to stop by! Let me know when you're coming (you can message our Instagram).
Got it, I thought it was on the 10th planet in Austin@@flowtheorygrappling
Would you consider cross ashi a useful position for white belts, given that attacking the trapped leg is illegal? Is it a good sweeping position in the same way that straight ashi is?
It looks like it would be hard to consistently get to top position, and I don't want to get berimbolo'd in the process :/
Sick song btw!
@@danielfisher3368yes, just make sure you try to keep the overwrap grip on the secondary leg until you’ve secured top position, so you can keep your opponent down.
I used cross ashi entries a lot in IBJJF prior to brown belt when heel hooks became legal. Check out Gordon Ryan in 2018 Pans/Worlds. He used them to sweep, since that was before heel hooks were legalized.
@@flowtheorygrappling Thanks for the help! Just watched his match against Patrick Gaudio on your reccommendation. Perfect example of what I was asking about.

Thanks for the support guys! I also just did a video that explains how to break your partner down to a hip from their knees after the initial entry.
Check it out here:

Excellent video. You clearly explained the technique and the "in action" footage demonstrated real-world application of the technique and a few of the likely scenarios to result from the position. Nicely done. I like to include fully-resisting video footage of the techniques I demonstrate, as I do here in this X-guard video: ruclips.net/video/vsGj1PzSfFU/видео.html
Thanks for the feedback!
