I have noticed with the kids between 155-175, I tend to naturally drift more towards their side rather than square with their back. (Im 135) And that makes my grip/control feel a bit more secure. But who knows.. :P

Yeah on someone big and strong it might be quite difficult. Might be easier on someone your size for sure

I can completely agree with that philosphy

Update for anyone whos interested.. Ive still been messing with it, but Ive run into a couple issues. 1. When Im against bigger guys, Gable grip is pretty much impossible, So I just started using S-grip. 2.) Anyone with any sort of significant strength advantage will be able to literally just "flex" out. However, That doesnt seem to be TOO much of an issue as long as youre ready for the transition. (armbars, kimuras.. Omoplata might be difficult in that situation).. Anyway, Still messing with it, and thats been the biggest problems from so far.

Very nice

I would love to see a video. It is very hard for me to picture in my head.
