• Shin Whizzer

  I absolutely love all of Coach Neal's videos (and his book) and the Shin Whizzer is no exception. All of the Ground Marshall's systems work well together and I like the thought processes/concepts that are employed. As an older grappler, I find it helpful to mix things up a bit when it comes to style. Adding CACC, Sambo, and wrestling techniques to my BJJ game keeps me competative with my younger, faster training partners. Thanks BJJ Fanatics and Coach Neal; keep up the good work.

• I am buying it because I felt guilty using his method all the time

  So I got a portion of this watched from a friend and have been using this like all the time... I use it with and without a gi... I find this entire system fantastic... I haven't watched the entire thing yet... but I can tell you that I have literally changed my entire way of thinking because of this instructional. Sorry to BJJ Fanatics and Neil for watching and not paying... I am getting on the right side now. I can't wait to see all of it. This entire system is not high level in that anyone can use it... I taught the basics of it to white belts today at open mat... they were asking my how I was getting the positions I was against the others... Cons of the system - 1) it requires reps to work and it is not intuitive. If feels wrong the first 20 times you do it. It took me about an hour of just fitting and experimenting to understand the groundwork. Once I got the basic concept - I started modifying everything to work with my short chubby frame. 2) I have found that it plays differently against people with different body types... now I haven't seen the entire system so this maybe premature to say - but I haven't seen Neil Melanson explain how to use the system against super tall, short or heavy people. Maybe he does but I have been using trial and error. Positives - 1) you don't have to be flexible, strong, or even talented to use this. You have to rep it - alot - but this is not a set of movements too advanced for beginners. There are parts of his system that will test the limits of new grapplers but the overall movements are so easy I can't believe I never thought of it myself. Once you get the basics - it will change the way you play. 2) I have found myself using this EVERYWHERE - the principals of this skill can be applied on a knee pass, press pass from triangle, knee mount, ... You should start using it exactly as Neil Melanson shows but I am drinking the koolaid. 3) The more I show people how I am using this skill - they are coming up with new ideas how to use this skill with other combinations - there are NO dead ends... you can take this to a scramble - you can shut down movement - you can work to a pass - you can work to a sub - you can get to ashi - you can get to x... I mean there is no end to the direction you can take... wrestlers might want to turn this into a scramble - sub grapplers into ashi... Special thanks to Neil Melanson for making this - I hope you get rich... you deserve it. I am going to be looking for more of his stuff.
