A well informative book. It describles the attitude you need to be competitive in this art. The illustration could have more detail on how to grasp the opponent. Possible to zoom in on the approach. Over all the book was very useful.

Thank you for voting. If your vote meets our 
Great book, Great price, easy to read.
) The first part is an interesting read by Eddie Bravo explaining the origins of BJJ and the evolution of his no-gi style. The technique portion is loaded with photos and detailed instructions.

Jiu - Jitsu Unleashed by Eddie BravoReview created: 07/05/07

This book from unconventional Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practioner, Eddie Bravo, covers aspects of the jiu jitsu game in a new & refreshing way. His knowledge of the sport and his ability to take existing techniques and tweak(or Twist)them into almost totally new moves is highlighted in here. Lots of clear pictures + explanations to go along with them, make this one definitely worth reading if you want to improve your game. You may recognize his high-profile student in most of the photos(Joe Rogan) - Fear Factor host and commentator on the Spike channel's UFC, as well as a dedicated jiu jitsu player in his own right.

Interesting non standard BJJ/Grapeling stuff4 of 4 people found this review helpful.
Ok so I was first introduced to this book at my shootfighting class. To explaing my training style, I'm not a BJJ guy we do a cross between kick boxing, BJJ and wrestling moves, im a 95% no Gi kinda guy( Gi vs no gi contorversy? Whats that? :) ).
When one of our instructors tried to show us the "New York" and "London" bottom control positions (Of which the New York is covered by this book). It was interesting stuff but hard to get your head round in just a couple of 2 hour sessions. I knew that that instructor had had this book in his bag for the last month or so I went out and got a copy off ebay and boy am I not regretting it.
This book is worth it just for the "Mission Control" description and all the moves connected with it, Ive subbed more guys with MC to armbar, MC to triangle and MC to omaplata in the last month than I ever hoped possible.
Some of the stuff in this book is way crazy stuff that Ive not got round to trying out yet (Gogoplata etc) but the mainstay of it is stuff that any grappler who is interested in no gi sparring or MMA must go out and buy. Its a good resource for odd but practical stuff that may give you an edge. Havign read this book Id quite happliy go and train with Eddie and his guys at 10th planet Jiu Jitsu. Keep up the good work Eddie.
