Hey guys, recently I started trying to work the armdrag into my game, and was looking for a few pointers. I wanted to share a few of the problems i face with it and wanted to see if you guys could help me.
1. When is the best time to set up the arm drag? I tried it while standing and were both locking for top grip, anyother set up you guys like? do you ever fake a move and hit the armdrag? If so what?
2. When a guy braces himself for it, and postures back, what is my best option from there?
3. Its not always an easy drag i get, and sometimes my partner would would wrap around my arm and we would kind of swing with eachother, what are some ways I can improve it?
4. Do you find the armdrag works better from sitting or standing (meaning you gain a better position) and is it as effective in the gi?
5. The times i do hit the drag my partner flies right by me, and i notice A. I'm not at a good angle to take the back B. theres too much space between us and he has time to circle back around. What are the proper mechanics to the armdrag? Could it be I'm pulling them in the arong direction?
If there are any vids you guys have could yall post the link, I'll be using a mobile phone and cant see posted vids only get youtube links. Well thanks for the help
