me using the rubber guard a few weeks ago against my friend. Had a few rookie mistakes. Didnt hug the knee tight enough and he escaped in the first one.
I guess I'm confused. Why would you want to watch other people doing something poorly/incorrectly when you can watch the guy who invented the system do it right? What is to be gained from watching a white belt flopping around with an awful RG? That's not to bash those of us with imperfect RG who have posted vids asking for critiques or showing a tournament highlight. That's different. I just don't see the point in watching video of a novice performing a task poorly when an expert is available. Maybe it's just because there's something about internet forums, but it seems like little more than an attempt to feel better about oneself by watching others fail at a complicated task. Perhaps I'm just being cynical at 9:00am?
Don't be confused. Your 100% correct.Quote:

Eddie makes it look easy because a) He's doing it the right way, and b) He's repped doing it the right way
Im seeing it as a good way to learn from others mistakes. If you can point out what others did wrong it will improve your game and give you a better understanding why all of the little details in the system are so important to do correctly and master. Plus its good to see that your not the only person that does make mistakes every once and a while. It helps keep up your confidence.
