For real . I’m a brown and marinated in basics as my instructor was a Cesar Gracie student for years . Lot of dudes nowadays wanna learn s new move everyday on YouTube but have shit badics . Kid cane to our gym . Solid blue . Had owon pans and tons of regionals1. 8 year old . (CA). He got a sweet beeimbolo on me and now and arrowwed me . Cool. We then did positional sparring . Kid couldn’t hold mount for shit . Couldn’t esscpe toght side control . Mount escape was nil basically . It’s he had a real niche , specialized game with lot of cool tricks but was lacking in the “ invisible BJJ” type shit . Not everybody is like this of course , but too many dudes need to go back to day one Shit and refine it rather than learn drill berimbolo entries for a million reps .
So unless he voluntarily gives you top position for a drill he taps you like a bitch? Cool.
