Pros and cons of Submission Defense app for iPhone and iPad

Submission Defense app good for

Nearly perfect! Just need to correct the full size video mode on iPad issue.
One of a Kind and a "Must have" for just about anyone who is into BJJ or any form of Grappling! Thx and keep it up!
Well worth the money. So nice to be able to review a defense just be before class or where ever you are.

Some bad moments

I downloaded this app and then got the email about its release as it was downloading. I love the app and I loved the submission one.
I have downloaded and studied many different programs out there, and every time Stephan comes out with something new, I download it right away. He always has extremely helpful and detailed instructions on not only how to apply the technique, but how to avoid some of the pitfalls that come along with the different techniques. This is without a doug, a must have for anyone in the BJJ community.
Very organized and tight app. High quality that we have come to expect from Mr. Kesting.
This is a fantastic app. As a 20-some year student and teacher in aikido, I find Stephans relaxed and direct teaching method makes the complex seem simple. Ive started applying these techniques in my training and have found success. The only issue currently with the app Is the bonus material for "Caging" doesnt function. Im sure it will be fixed in an update. Buy these apps! Theyre a great resource. Leon
Stephen is a great teacher, Ive successfully executed some of these defenses a must buy.
Great techniques for beginners as well as experts. These defenses have saved me more than once.
