Carina Santi’s hand triangle from the ’18 Brazilian No-Gi Nationals

Santi attacks.

Fighting at the 2018 No-Gi Brazilian Nationals in Rio, Carina Santi rose above her peers. The G13 BJJ representative took gold in the heavyweight division with no opponents, but she had a hurdle between her and the title in the absolute.

GFTeam’s Aline Xavier, the light featherweight runner-up, was Carina’s opponent. Carina took control of the fight and gave her no spaces. Aline tried to work from the closed guard, but Carina soon broke free and, during the standup grip exchange, set up her attack: in a quick motion, Carina passed her arm over Aline’s neck and sank it deep to take her hand from one side to the other, thus closing the hand triangle.

The ensuing seconds of adjustment were crucial in maximizing the power of the move. And the tapout followed.

Dois dias de pegadas firmes e movimentos rápidos. Foi esse o ritmo aplicado no Brasileiro de Jiu-Jitsu Sem Kimono, realizado no último final de semana (29 e 30 de setembro), na Tijuca, com feras de várias equipes batalhando sem pano pelo ouro da CBJJ.

Entre os destaques na faixa-preta, dois nomes levaram a melhor e voltaram para casa com dois ouros na mochila. Hugo Marques, da nossa GMI Soul Fighters, e Carina Santi, na nossa GMI G13 BJJ, venceram não só em suas respectivas categorias de peso, mas também os complicados duelos no absoluto.

Para Hugo, o sucesso duplo veio após superar Ygor Rodrigues (Marcio Rodrigues) no peso médio e em seguida duelar com Felipinho César (Unity) na disputa de peso aberto. Para Carina, sem adversárias na divisão de peso pesado, restou apenas batalhar e vencer Aline Xavier (GFTeam) para completar a missão do ouro duplo. Outro destaque ficou para o nosso GMI Arthur “Gogó”, que brilhou na divisão master 2 ao morder o ouro no super pesado e a prata no absoluto.

The 18-second fight for absolute gold at the São Paulo BJJ Pro

Thu, 12 Jul 2018 16:50:14 +0000

Carina Santi celebrates the absolute title.

What can you do in 18 seconds during a roll? A cunning takedown, or a safe guard pull, perhaps. But in the case of Carina Santi, a black-belt at G13BJJ, 18 seconds was enough time to amass five points and finish for absolute gold at the São Paulo BJJ Pro, a tournament held early this month.

To achieve this, Carina pulled guard and quickly swept. Then she advanced to the side as Jéssica Swanson (Soul Fighters) tried to escape. Noticing her opponent’s oversight, Carina went for the collar and choked her, the clock still showing less than 20 seconds. The win was made sweeter by the check she won for 1,500 reais.

Watch the following video for a good example of how not to let your opponent get settled in, like, at all.

O que você consegue fazer em 18 segundos num treino de Jiu-Jitsu, caro leitor? Uma queda sorrateira, ou uma segura puxada para a guarda, talvez. Mas no caso de Carina Santi, faixa-preta da nossa GMI G13BJJ, 18 segundos foi tempo suficiente para acumular cinco pontos e finalizar pelo ouro absoluto do São Paulo BJJ Pro, realizado no início deste mês.

Para conseguir tal façanha, Carina puxou para a guarda e rapidamente raspou. Em seguida, avançou para a lateral, enquanto Jéssica Swanson (Soul Fighters) tentava escapar. No descuido da adversária, Carina foi com tudo na gola e estrangulou, com o relógio marcando ainda poucos segundos da finalíssima que rendeu a Carina um cheque de 1.500 reais além do ouro no aberto.

Reveja o lance no vídeo abaixo e pratique suas posições mais fortes em alta velocidade você também!
