Clear explanation, good structure.
Perfect instructional to seal the deal ia a match. Full of insightful concepts.

amazing Instructional
Brilliant info
Before this my I felt uncomfortable on the back, now I consider it one of my favorite positions.
Plenty of stuff, I think every back position is covered
Such a good instructor with lots of details in techniques. I'm so happy I can learn so much from this instructional videos
Great stuff from Ante!
This course does a great job of both teaching individual techniques and providing a framework to understand why they work and chain them together. Some sections (bow and arrow, etc.) are gi-specific, but the overall concepts are very useful for both gi and no-gi.
Great resource to control the back
Broken down into very basic steps that can be implemented immediately.
Useful! I use this in training
In this instructional, taught in the GI, Ante Dzolic teaches with the aim for the student to have the ability to not lose back control and either submit or if necessary to change the type of back control being used. The submissions taught are a mixture of fundamental and intermediate submissions. His approach includes providing a gameplan. This is a techniques rich and comprehensive back control and submission instructional. It is organised into six volumes, with a volume for each of the following topics: falling to the high or overhook side; falling to the underhook side; the upper body crucifix; the lower body crucifix; the harness or seatbelt control (with a focus on the upper body control using your arms); and the leg harness (combination of control using your arms and legs to control). The instructional has a total runtime of 5 hours and 7 minutes. Ante Dzolic teaches a sequence of actions for each technique (e.g., **** the top arm first and then the bottom arm, etc) and importantly, if the technique fails, he teaches a follow on technique. In my view it is good that he teaches what to do when things don’t go to plan as this is the reality for lots of people when rolling. Demonstrations are clear. Where a point needs to be emphasised and it is difficult to clearly see, then Ante Dzolic will demonstrate that movement to the camera. It is noticeable that he is very mindful of his angle to camera. A single fixed camera has been used, nevertheless the video (i.e., quality including range and focus) and sound are good. It is also good that the instructor and uke are wearing different coloured GIs to easily differentiate their limbs. I own several Ante Dzolic instructionals and from experience his teaching is consistently good and the techniques are not complex and in my experience they work. I don’t normally comment on cost, because value for money is a personal / subjective concept, but to be fair I think this represents excellent value for money – content, quality of the teaching and quality of the video. If you really want to improve your back control and submission skills, in my experience this instructional is a low risk solution.
