Deep Practice Alert: Braulio Estima

From an article by Caleb of The Fightworks Podcast, Gracie Barra's Braulio Estima star at the 2009 ADCC Championship
This technique comes very natural for my game. It’s a technique I’ve actually been doing since I was a blue belt. It’s not a new technique. It’s just a natural thing that I mastered since the last tournament. I’ve been training this technique a lot in preparing for the Abu Dhabi. I even texted [my brother] Octavio saying, 'Man I’ve been training a lot of reverse triangles, so watch out for the reverse triangle, I’m going to get a lot of people in that.' It was funny because I managed to get the toughest guy in it.
