Ok. Maybe I should post about what would make a killer tape set. World Martial Arts!!! Are you reading!!!?? All other tape manufactures pay attention!!!
Make tapeset as follows for sport JJ, Submission Fighting, and NHB:
Eg: Your opponent likes armbars
Show 10 ways to EXTEND your arm in a deceitful manner and 10 counters so that your in PLACE physcially and mentally to use your opponents greed
to get something more powerful in the chess game. Like a better position, or a new submission.
Your opponent likes gi chokes.
- show 10 ways to give up your neck to opponents who love gi chokes and how your be able to turn to the tables to your favor with better positions and new submissions that lead off this.
Your opponent likes single legs
Your opponent likes to kick
etc etc etc You get the point!!!
This tape set could also be against street opponent tactics. Maybe your opponent likes headlocks. Do the same for this.
This is not a video of COUNTERS. This is a video set of SETUPS. Based on knowing what your opponent likes.
True there's risk involved in giving bait like armbars and your neck, but isn't it better KNOWING THE TIME that your opponent will attack (because you set him up) that waiting around and reacting to what your opponent does.
To simply this strategy, if man continued to chase mice by running around with a broomstick he would rely on athletics, timing, speed, sensitivity. But what of the guy who figured out what the mice liked, and set a trap. Sure you may lose the cheese but your submission in the end! Submission but neck crank
So all you tape producers out there. Assume your opponent has brains will you! Not to mention that you could make a million producing tape sets based on "intellect" and deception as opposed to athletics, timing and sensitivity.
Even Bruce lee spoke of this many year ago and in his wonderful book. Lets DRAW out opponents actions out. Sure we need to know what he likes because otherwise he may not take the bait, and we'll be waiting like a moron for something that never comes!
I've yet to know tapes produced by great strategists. They're all run of the mill guys who just market what they've been taught! I bet the machado guys know all that i'm referring to and so does the Gracies.
I wanna see tapes like this for Sport BJJ, SUb Grappling, and NHB. Imagine the joy of elading your opponent with every move, and have yhour counter waiting in place.
For those of us who like to think... this is the tapes we buy! So please satisfy the thinkers!!!
