What Will You Learn?

Create the ultimate system for attacking off your back, as Gordon “The King” Ryan teaches you his step-by-step approach to sweeping and submitting from a supine (laying down) guard. In this 8-volume series, you will learn the entire x guard, De La Riva guard, reverse De La Riva guard, and more that Gordon combines into one lethal supine open guard.

When combined with his seated guard series, this 8-volume masterclass in supine guard will show everything you need to handle talented opponents and start creating opportunities to sweep and submit them. With his signature systematic approach, Gordon explains the concepts, goals, and techniques for a supine open guard that anyone can use, regardless of athleticism or belt rank.

Create real pressure on opponents from bottom and break their balance constantly with these refined concepts for total control, even over athletic or talented opponents. Use Gordon’s genius X guard and ashi garami tactics to create opportunities to enter leg locks, create back exposure, and more (including the dilemmas and trilemmas around positions like the ashi X, ushiro X, and reverse x).

Combine these systems with Gordon’s De La Riva and reverse De La Riva, including his breakdown on how to make complex techniques like the berimbolo and crab ride useful and simple in no-gi.

Watch “The King” in action as Gordon rolls with opponents in the gym from his supine guard and then breaks down the footage in real-time so you can understand the system in action. With Gordon explaining the strategy to back up the technique, you can fully unlock this style and begin finding the true potential of your open guard.
