I'll keep this in mind against guys I know that don't double bag.

Also dat west la rashguard; can we still order those?

[Scott Chapman]

Rash guards are sold out.....I tried ordering one for a buddy for birthday glad I got mine though lol

[Brandon Mccaghren]

That's almost exactly what I do to pass Rubber Guard. Obviously, if they Double Bag it presents new problems. But this is really strong positioning and a very effective pass.

My only difference would be that I prefer to reverse the order of the passes. I use his second option as my first option.

This was great. Shows just how hard it can be to get out of NY even without a double bag.

Demerits to the guy for not engaging the lockdown when MG passes to halfguard.

The "guy" is Mike Broe, a HUGE 10th Planet fan. He's my main training partner at MG and he watches every MTS. Unlike me however, he really studies the information. A friend of mine from the academy took a picture of Mike's notes from a Marcelo class the other day. It looks like this:


Mike makes the same type of notes for the 10th Planet stuff he's working on. He was totally thrilled to be chosen to apply the RG stuff when Marcelo chose to teach that lesson. I know he's a member of this site/forum, but I don't think he really posts here.

Yeah I was just kidding about the lockdown. MG was demonstrating something. I was trying to be clever. I'll edit my post and inject a smiley.

Don't worry, I didn't think for a minute that you were dissing him or anything. It's really hard to convey tone in writing, so its easy for you to think maybe I was offended by what you wrote, or that I was writing in a certain way and all that... but it wasn't the case here. And in fact, it seldom is the case on this board. And while I'm active on Instagram (@johnricard) and Facebook, I think this is the only forum I participate in. It's the only forum where people don't end up in fighting all the time. I wish more forums were like this one.

I tried this pass after watching and it definitely slows down and impedes someone's RG progress especially if they don't know their RG transitions. I agree with BMac that part 2 is the primary and part 1 is the secondary option.
