Beginner 150 lbs. 16 man division, 4 matches to win gold. I did a lot of things well, but I also know that I made a ton of mistakes. All criticism and advice is very much appreciated. Thanks guys! Oh and huge thanks to J.m. Holland and Zach Maslany from 10p Allentown for being tremendous coaches!

nice work!
Awesome wins, I've not seen Z-guard/qtr guard used to quite those extremes I think I'd be worried whether my knees could take that you seem to have very bendy legs!
Very sick bro! Congrats
time for intermediate bro, nice work
What weight? You dwarf those guys
Congrats!!! I also have not seen going belly down from Z-guard played as someone’s primary sweep game from there. Were you taught that move or figure it out? Do you have and issues with someone getting a gable grip around your waist and then sprawling during or after the sweep (it does look like it would be hard to sprawl there initially) and then coming back up to their knees? Congrats again man!! I’d talk to my coach about moving to intermediate next time, I think you can handle it :)
Damn impressive performance Kevin, I was thoroughly entertained watching your vids.
Couple things: Your rubber guard has unlimited potential, you just need to strengthen your RG clinch, it looks to be a tab bit lose. Once you get that handled your rubber guard will look like denny's :)
Really really nice work. Maybe work on tightening up the lockdown as well. I'm a fan dude. :)
clearing house like a bawse
Yeah man, Boogey from 10p Vista showed me that sweep. I love it. No one's ever gable gripped around my waist before, but I can see how that could be hazardous. I know there's a second part to the sweep, if I remember correctly, you shoulder roll and take the back. I need to see it again, but I should certainly learn it since the first sweep is definitely a big part of shield guard game.Quote:

Th 93 guard sweep is really similar to a classic gi sweep, where instead of posting both hands on the floor you grab a sleeve and a knee. I don't think it works as well in no gi, because most guys are going to abandon the leg weave and either double leg you back down or take the back.
