why take a 10th planet tech and make it not work as good... just seems like he wanted to make it better and failed... the lockdown gives you way more control, so why not use it ?
Ryan Hall should have MTTT on his xmas list
I like the roll over the knee in half guard advise, learnt something.
rep it with hooking a lockdown, just like from the quarterguard. I tried this and the dude I was rolling with got out like 80% of the time. with the lockdown in I always get to the truck.Quote:

Just sayin'.
I believe ushiro kesa gatame is performed by positioning you hips above your opponent's shoulder (allowing you to wrap up your opponent's arm like you were cradling a football) whereas Twister Side control is performed with your hips below your opponent's shoulder. Similar body position for sure, but different application. Like the difference between being in someone's full guard vs being in full mount; your body position is the same, but relative to your opponent the little variation can make a huge difference!Quote:

Just that when there is a better way to do it, it should be pointed out, how else does one learn. JUST SAYING :).
but when the entire rest of his game is based in trad. 1/2 guard, why would he use lockdown in this single situation?
seems unnecessary, especially when he doesn't stay in the truck and simply transitions to the back.
