Guys, I'm looking for drills that can improve my guard passing footwork. Particularly solo drills I can do on my own. After watching tons of guard passing footage in competition, I'm convinced footwork is one of the keys to success, especially at the lower weights.
For example, after watching, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gr2FoVttm7U, I made up a drill that I can do with a stability ball. It's nothing special, all it does is mimics the passing footwork that Rafa shows in the knee slide pass and the forward pressure for a Galvao-style bullfighter pass. Anyway, it works pretty well, and I wanted to see if anyone knew of any other guard passing drills to improve footwork. Let me know. Thanks!
