Hey guys
I like to play alot of open guard, but find that alot of the higher belts pass mine very easily, which is normal and fine by me. But I'm just looking for some tips on how to tighten up my game and see if there's any key elements I'm missing.
I try to never let people get hold of my ankles. When they're passing I try to put their head to the same side as their legs and shrimp away. I try to keep one foot or both feet on their hips to control the distance.
I only ask because I like to work the Omoplata from this position and while it works well with the guys who are kind of at my level, I don't seem to get chance against the better guys!
Thanks
