Bolo Roll - Granby Drills - Jiu Jitsu Technique with Matt Edgington
youtube·Matt Edgington·6:46·2 techniques
Overview
Matt Edgington breaks down the Granby Roll (also called the Bolo Roll) as a critical escape and conditioning drill for practitioners with limited neck or back flexibility. He demonstrates the fundamental rolling mechanics, then introduces a progressive wall drill to build strength and spatial awareness without the fear of falling. Finally, he teaches an advanced 'octopus drill' where the head remains grounded while the feet circle the body, designed to condition the neck for stacked positions and reduce panic during live rolling.
