    You can also do the "Hardcore"!!! Even though it's a BQ techniques I can see how it could be affective in rare circumstances...

    Arm drag someone as if you were going to take their back but don't go for their back. When you arm drag and their body is coming past you place one foot in between their legs and get desouza control and fall back grapevinen their leg on the fall back. I haven't watched MSTS episode 9 yet because it lags like a mfer. But I hadn't restarted my computer in about 2 months so you know. I wonder if they do it the same way.

Boring yes, good for your game...I think so
    i couldn't agree more Kevin positional control is key to a solid game

    Playing with the position recently, I tend to switch my hips to scarf hold either go for the arm lock with my legs or go to the crucifix position. Basically scraping the arm back up with my inside leg.

    Your positional mindset dictates your submission approach.

    When people question TSC as a control position, I sick Red on them. When a 125lbs 5'3'' ginger and HOLD you in place and attack like crazy, you'll believe....trust me...you'll believe.

    LOL I never used to be good at it either got to practice to get good at anything. Its like people who try their first RG attempt in a mma event. If you havnt put in the reps it will not be their for you. I dont think I would like the feeling of Red holding me in twister side but I hope to get the chance to stop in and train with you guys in victoria sometime.

    Twister Side is no joke. I use it against 200 Plus lbers all the time. Lots of transitions and very effective. Like Reverend Kevin said-position control, then submission. And akin to what Ari said-when a 150 lb 5 foot 8 41 year old can control you for as long as they want, it ain't a joke. There are a lot of opportunities for subs, positional shifts, control, and just annoying the crap out of the bottom player. One drill I do personally, and have my students do is something I call "positional sparring" where we start in a position, whether advantageous or disadvantageous, and work to control and refine that position for anywhere from 1 minute to 5 minutes, THEN start submission hunting. Forcing yourself to play one position for say, three weeks, makes you good at it for sure.
