3576 and Half Guard Passing

Taps: 7. Total: 3576.

BB Chris ... Half Guard Passes. Lots of details.

1. He's on his side, wins Underhook even.
Pass A: REVERSE SIT:
 a. Flatten him: my left knee against his hip, Walk my right (trapped knee) to the right.
 b. Left hand over his face onto other side, change base (Reverse Sit), Gi grip under his armpit.
 c. Right hand grips far side knee pants grip.
 d. Shrimp back toward his face, pressure with my butt against his shoulder and face and FREE my leg for the Pass and keep the pressure by going almost N/S.

Pass B: KNEE CUT
 a. try to shrimp but he's holding on tight to ankle with his legs, can't get it free, THEN ... change base back other way, get Underhook, Knee Cut.
 b. Pick up his right arm, pull up as I Knee Slide and free my ankle for the Pass and move toward N/S for pressure.

var. to B: if I still can't Free the Ankle ... reach behind with my left hand and grip top knee and pull up a little.

BB Mike tip on getting the gi out for the grip: Instead of fumbling near the waist to pull out the gi, START at the TOP of the gi, slide my hand down til i get near the waist, then it's easy to pull out.

Brown Sub visiting gave me a good tip on Omo prevention, which I desperately needed: he said to go to Combat Base.

Haueter inspiration has got me thinking about using Less Muscle, Less Energy, and more Technique.
