mobn posted:I'm having trouble picturing finishing an RNC without using my other hand do drive their head forward into it. Otherwise my arm is long enough that they have too much space for it to be effective. Are you applying pressure with your chest or shoulder to drive it, or are your proportions just perfect to get the right amount of squeeze just grabbing your shoulder with the one arm? My instructor is always preaching that you should breathe in really sharply once you have it somewhat locked up, so that your chest pushes him into the choke further. It's kind of weird but it's effective.

fawker posted:I joined the free rolling session last night at my gym... Calming down definitely helps, also don't be afraid to ask questions. Like if a guy taps you out three times in a row with an armbar from guard, ask him what you're doing wrong and he'll probably tell where you should be putting your arms instead of on his chest

Mardragon posted:#1 Anthony Robles Arizona State, Sr. - So we'll start with the most interesting story, and one that will sweep over the country if he wins. Anthony Robles is a one-legged wrestler, and a two time All-American. He has the upper body of a 185 lbs wrestler, which he uses to control opponents because of his inability to reliably stand. His style is unique to say the least, he hasn't lost this year, and is a tremendous human interest story. He presents a unique challenge to any of his opponents because of his unconventional style. Wow, that's awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlbIrQALq8Q

I have a Padilla & Sons one, I bought it second-hand though so I don't have any experience dealing with the company. But I have heard that their customer service is top notch. It's a great gi, the only possible drawback I would mention is that it's pretty heavy with a really thick collar, so if you want a lighter-weight gi then it's probably not for you.

John Blaster posted:In addition to this, they don't even let you do live rolling until you have three stripes.. This strikes me as being pretty stupid, one of the best ways to learn is sparring with guys who are better than you. I'm guessing they had problems with guys who are new spazzing out and hurting themselves (or others), but not letting new guys roll at all is really extreme.

Xguard86 posted:What system gives 4 for back and then 4 more for getting hooks in? Everywhere I've been/seen only gives 4. I think there was an IBJJF rule change a year or so ago to this effect, I remember my instructor mentioning it in class. Like if you have mount and the guy turns over onto his belly, if you stay mounted you get another 4 points even if you don't have hooks in. And then four more if you do get hooks. I can't find any confirmation online though.

I find from mount it can become more of a neck crank than a choke, but if he wasn't complaining about that then I dunno what his issue was.

Supposedly Galvao was pissed as well because Palhares wrenched on his thumb to break a grip when they fought in the final. Toquinho seems like such a cool humble guy whenever they interview him but it definitely does seem that he's not all there mentally.

Isn't it an automatic DQ to roll out of bounds to escape a submission anyways? Though I guess they were close enough to the edge of the mat that you might consider it as being incidental. Avellan probably knew where he was though.

It was the gold medal match and the guy who wasn't injured won gold since the injury was accidental and not the result of an illegal technique. If it makes any difference he certainly didn't feel very good about it.

the periodic fable posted:There's also another one that Stepha Kesting did in his Unorthodox Positions & Attacks that i can't remember the name of now but it's basically an Achilles in which you trap his other leg as well and then thread them over each other. It's more or less a pain lock as I recall but you can get some fantastic torque on it I was at that seminar, he called it the "leg weave". It was basically an achilles lock + kneebar at the same time. Cool technique although I can't really say I've used it since then.

I usually just wing it mixing stuff I learned with intuition, but there's probably some good step by step guide on how to proceed. Stephan Kesting's is pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=176SLdBhj_A Also, a "clock choke" from back mount? Do you mean the bow and arrow choke? As far as I know the clock choke refers to the one you do from the side to a guy who's turtled.

That's the sneaky kneebar from the top where you trap his leg with your own, right? I've seen it once or twice before. I think this video shows it a little more clearly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3bN3RdCgxE&t=120s
