everyone, thanks for the comments... i appreciate it

i heard my teammate tore through the blue senior 1 middle.

my other teammate took 3rd in masters super super he had to stop because he felt his shoulder pop

and 2 of my others got 1st and 3rd in blue senior 3 feather
 
Crap. You're not worth the dye used to color your belt. Just kill yourself now. Un Im Pressed.

Go to sleep Frodo.
 
First guy sucks, and needs to learn how to properly hold mission control if he's even gonna attempt rubber guard. I hope he hears me, that cocky jackass. Nice work owning the first cocky guy by the way!
 
Oh yea, whats up with your posture in the closed guard? I think it needs work, correct me if I'm wrong though. Just trying to give some constructive criticism.
 
Hey Kid, how come you never reach for the far collar when you do the underhooking guard pass? That small detail has transformed the pass into on that is very high percentage for me. if i can get the collar, im probably gonna pass.

just wondering bc it didnt seem like you reached for the collar at all even though you wen for the pass alot.
 
and nice job Zankou, pity we couldnt get a clearer shot of when you scored
 
Yeah, it was kind of an interesting takedown. Wish it was a better shot of it.

I also wish I hadn't squandered all my arm strength in the first couple minutes working for subs from closed guard. But hey, live and learn. At least I kept his posture broken most of the time.

Next time I am resolved to make my fights more interesting, and less conservative. It was hard this time because my opponent was so defensive the whole time.

Here's my first match, which i won by points, i noticed when i watched it, my opponent (in black) puts his thumbs up to his coach. he also did like a "come here" thing to me while standing

My 2nd match was fun... against a guy named colin from saulo. Video was just uploaded so it's still not available, but i lost by armbar in the final minute. i could hear world champ Xande screaming coaching my opponent, i couldnt drown out his voice to hear my coach. i'll post link when its up

Just joking that first time :-)

I liked your grappling in the first match. Good sprawl and pancake/takedown. Great job preventing the pass to mount and nice sweep too. Couldn't see if he was tight or not with the triangle. Crap, I hate it when they disrobe me from my gi!!! He was cautious in the beginning, but at the end it was pretty exciting.

Second match seemed like a tough one for sure. Good attempt for an armbar in the beginning. The only thing I saw was that your hips weren't very high up when you tried it, but I can't tell what's going on that well from behind your opponent. Good scramble to guard when he escaped. Oh, I thought you had a few sweeps, but it isn't easy with Xande in your opponent's corner!

I wonder what that bird call means...

i was controlling his hips to immobilize him, i didn't feel any threat so i didn't posture. but i might turn that into a bad habit.

i actually like the pass you mention, but i didn't feel the need for it that much at that point but yeah, i should have
