One of the more unique closed guard patterns used in jiu jitsu is the High Guard position. It's a pretty offensive position with its own set of strengths and weaknesses. Here's a short segment where we break the use of the high guard position and some common beginning attacks from there:

So, in the interest of discussion, does anyone use this particular guard? How about strengths and weaknesses that you see?

Excellent tutorial, Alex; as always. Thanks!!

I see quite a lot of Tuite mechanics throughout this entire sequence; excellent!! This is the strength's I see right off the bat. The weakness I saw right off the bat was the "walking" to get your legs in proper position, and with anyone savvy in grappling, will see what you're up to, and if possible, they'll counter the "walking" at any available means in their arsenal. One will win and one will not; this is true of anything!

This is what I see/saw!!
