Taps: 825

Taps: 3. Total: 825.

Tech -- Side Control Esc.

1. Flattened, and crossfaced: Bridge and get inside hand in, make frame and break cross face.
2. Don't let him get crossface back, so he'll have to put his hand on other other side.
3. When he does, push on his elbow and make frame with that hand and also with other hand on his hip.
4. Bridge and re-Guard.

** Marcelo pushes on the hand to make room to get hand in; and he does an elbow push, which I've done successfully.

Pre-Class Vince.

Half Top Series -- Pop up the Knee. 1. Knee Cut. 2. Knee on chest right in center (wait for his reaction). 3. Knee on other way, almost to Mount, and take his Back.

After Class - Vince. Closed Guard Hook under knee.
1. If the guy top Guard puts a knee up, hook under that leg with my leg.
2. If there is no room, push off with my other leg on his other hip, then there should be room.
3. If he sits back down to trap my leg, push off with my other leg into his other hip, come up for the Sweep.


Next Tech to Drill 1000 -- Xande Sweep aka Rey Sweep, Flower Sweep, Pendulum Sweep.

1. Flower Sweep.  One important thing -- the other leg (left leg needs to swing out, then back to CHOP the guys knee).

Here's Lovato, Jr. showing Xande Sweep.

Braga showing the same. 

And Andreh with the under leg version.

Some techs on my mind. Blue no stripe kept getting underhook on me in Half Guard and getting on his side, like he's supposed to and had trouble passing, and trouble setting up the Darce, and eventually he Deep Halfed on me. 

So, 1. Darce. 

2. Deep Half, Top to the Back, Mendes, Island-style. Mendes.  Jason Vigil's interpretation.

3. Closed Guard - Draculino Bump. 

And couple of Fails. 

F1. Dave Kama control. Cross Grip and Back of Neck Grip to Takedown. Got the grips, but couldn't get the takedown. (:22 same side grip, then passes over to other, so he has cross grip. Reaches over the back for second grip. Turns him over and gets KoB. Same thing on second roll -- :55 passes over to cross grip. Over the back and I think he pulls down). 

F2. Cross grip Seio Nage. 

 

Blue Brian and I ended up both standing and I tried this, but I didn't pull down. So Fail. Epic fail.
