do you think shaving your beard changed your flight pattern while doing flying attacks?

Great job, Nathan. I have a few questions from watching the vids if you are so inclined to share! If I'm seeing this correctly, the Dead Orchard is started from Crackhead Control, you knee dive with the free arm to cut the angle to you can get your legs to cross in a reverse triangle. With that pressure and angle it looks like you hunt/play chess with their arms until they expose the "under" (farthest from your head, closest to your groin). At that point, do you always bring the leg around the head to finish the armbar or just as the need arises? My other question is that I noticed at the end of the few videos I watched that the guy always raises up; is this because you are applying the armbar or are you taking the armbar because they are trying to escape with the posturing? Sorry for the questions but the angle in the videos doesn't clear those up for me. Thanks again!

crackhead control is one way to set it up and how I originally started doing it. I will basically use the pump to squeeze his elbows on my stomach. I am not sure what you mean by "reverse triangle" because I actually lock in the triangle but with both of his arms in. once the triangle is locked in I can pull my mission control arm out. Now I have a few options depending on what he does or how strong/good at defending he is. the finish I use the most is an arm bar on the side of the triangle lock. in this video I actually do a Americana type crank but you just can't see it cause of the camera angle. people try to stand up and posture out but the triangle lock is so tight they can't pull out of it. kicking my leg in front of there face for an arm bar is a croc. Again, it kinda depends on what he does. I have been saying it for a while and I promise it will happen but video will be coming soon explaining all the options in more detail. I hope that answers you questions. I suck at typing instruction :)

You don't suck at all, bro! This answers a TON that I can't tell from video, so thanks so much for taking the time. I'm starting to play with this ASAP. Congrats again!

The only way I can see me not getting submitted is by disqualification due to slamming from the guard and I cant bring myself to go full Rampage Jackson since your a nice guy Nate. So I guess the answer is simple: I am going to sleep. :)
