I vote for "The week in Roc"!!! I learn much more! Nobody else on the web is doing a free series. Its frigging GOLD! I understand what Sam is saying, but everybody can find time if they really want too!

Personally I prefer the longer series

Hey Zog on the 50/50 counter video, the Calf Crush/Knee Compression section, is it possible to force that or is it better to wait for them to roll? I was taught that trying to roll when in the 50/50 is a good way break your leg on your own. So I was just wondering if someone refused to roll if you could still get the submission.

If they don't roll(Cork Screw Escape/Or as Eddie calls it "The Manny Escape" on a episode of MTS) they will get heel hooked. I disagree that rolling out of a 50/50 will break your own leg. I don't see a need to force it, the heel hook is a way higher percentage finish.

I was lied to (about breaking your leg)! Ok I was just thinking in terms of tournament rules when the heel hooks aren't allowed but knee compressions are. Seems like there are plenty of attacks regardless

However you could cause serious damage if you tried to spin out of a straight ankle lock, that is a no no. Maybe that was what he was refering to?

longer series please. if I have to devote a month of class to working one video, that is totally cool.

Both would be great, but if I were forced to choose, I'd pick TWIR. It's like getting free seminar material. It's fantastic. On the other hand, people are very into instant gratification on the Internet (which is why most people fast forward through porn), so maybe do a whole series but break it into separate videos so its the best of both worlds.

My leglock IQ is handicapped low so there's a good possibility that is what he meant but I misunderstood.

Personally, I like the longer videos. It gives you time to flesh out an idea.
