I take it you like leglocks?

 

Yeah they are my bread and butter so to speak

 

What tourney was this? Division? Experience level?

Congratulations on your win by the way! Goodjob.

 

Its called the Subleague Championships its in portland oregon, there are 3 qualifiers. two in portland one in seatle. this is the finals

the division is mens intermediate 149lbs and below

there are no points its only submission or draw

 

Cool, well I don't know but in the first video, I thought his scarfhold pin he had on you was pretty weak, You could've taken his back there almost the whole match. But goodjob on the reversal and nice transition to kneebar (I can tell you practice them a lil) ^_^

The second video, I thought you looked alot more dominant than him standing up, maybe if you commited a little more you would've taken him down, instead of him jumping to guard. You should really work your triangle escapes,sitting there and tucking your arm to stop him from crossing it might've worked this time, and it might next time, but thats not a good defense against someone who knows how to work from that position.

Just some constructive criticism, but hey what do I know.

Other than that grats, great job, keep it up ^^

 

thanks alot, Yeah i tried a cross duck when i kind of fell into that triangle, I am usually pretty good at not letting anyone secure it but it got pretty deep and I kind of lost focus for a second.
I will definitely be working on the escapes though

 

ttt

 

im too much into leg and ankle locks. sometimes i think they are just easy to get. but congrats i give anyone props who competes. great job.

 

I am a little confused on how they are too easy to get. They have to be set up just like any other sub.

I do appreciate the props nevertheless

 

was it really necessary for that huge ref to be basically sitting on top of you's

 

He is a big dude huh, he just had to remind us that he could kill us if he wanted to methinks.:icon_chee
