Since I've received many inquiries on my new sponsor concerning the banner ad for the Brabo/D'Arce DVD above I'll answer the questions publicly here on the blog since many of you have the same questions.
I'll give a quick overview of the D'Arce DVD offered at www.trainfightwin.com/d'arce
As many of you know by now, my reviews are always as honest as can be and I always include the bad with the good and it has to be at least 80% good for me to even mention it.
The true value of this DVD are the clearly explained technical details for setting up the D'arce choke from many positions, including the open guard, side control, side control bottom reversal, the guard pass, as well as a really useful counter to a back attack to counter the rear naked choke.
The DVD is over an hour long and shows about 22 different strategies in technical detail for setting up the the D'Arce/Brabo choke clearly demonstrating the versatility I've been discussing and showing why this choke so often takes people completely by surprise when they least expect it if you know how to set it up properly.
It is definitely a high percentage choke.
That said the affordability of the video download version is great as you can watch the video right away and at $25.00 it can't be beat.
The one draw back of the video is that it lacks some of the basic detail of some of the positions making it not as useful for beginners and that's a shame because there are some very useful tactics for beginners to catch more advanced grapplers with.
The fact that's it's missing some positional details makes it ideal for Blue belts and above but I feel that with some more details on the positions involved, even white belts would have profited from the DVD. That's why anyone below a blue belt level should wait on this one.
So anyone who's above blue and wants to add a serious submission edge to their game, definitely pick this up!
Within weeks you can be landing the D'Arce choke unexpectedly.
