Understanding Grip Countering Techniques
Counter gripping is crucial in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, especially when dealing with dominant grips from opponents. There are three main methods to counter a grip during a duel. The first method is grip breaking, which involves trying to strip the opponent’s grip; however, this method can be risky as it often requires significant dedication of your own defensive capabilities. The second method is inverting the grip, where the grappler maneuvers their hand into a more advantageous position without breaking the opponent's hold, allowing for potential control over the situation without compromising their own defenses.
