![]() ![]() The idea is almost the opposite of the darce. The guy in your video basically shows that. ![]() The big difference between 20 was to not just pull your arm deeper once you trap their arm with your legs, but to pull your arm out, away, up, and then in. Rafa never mentioned the big chest puff detail but that video you posted covers most of the details. The flip side is that for most people the finish itself is more difficult than darces or guillotines. It's a somewhat easy position to get into if you do his top rolling setup. I spent a lot of time working on it and it still feels okay to me. I did a private with Rafa on the anaconda choke in 2012 and again in 2015 to ask if he had made any significant changes. This guy adds a chest expansion detail, which I imagine is similar to how some people finish the RNC. Early in the video, the guy teaches the anaconda nearly identical to the way Rafa teaches it on his video in YouTube. The guy in the video featured above took a private from Rafa Mendes specifically on the anaconda in 2014. ![]() Rafa finished without collecting the leg and from what I recall, without even fully breaking down Galvao's arm. While I understand Galvao was tired, they were going hard. We have all seen the footage of Rafa tapping Galvao with the anaconda. I find it to almost be a necessity on people who are versed in defending the anaconda. I typically collect the leg to finish the anaconda (and the darce) whenever I can. Question: Do you guys use this "chest puff" finishing mechanic? Do you find success with it and how do you do it? Are there other resources that elaborate on this finishing mechanic or one that you use? The relevant part of the video is from (timestamp - 10:40). My plan is to use this thread as an archive for my own troubleshooting with the Anaconda choke. ![]()
