More guard passing issues

PM class

techniques-
-spider guard pass- walk them back and squat, bring knees together and plant knees. move to jacare toriani variant.

-spider guard pass- they resist the first one, you switch to under the calves, push them onto neck, stack 'em. pressure with back, step over arm with shin, push to side control.

-spider guard pass- same as above, but you push them to take the back and wrap up the turtle control (opposite lapel and hip pressure, they roll right into side control).

notes

-spider- the entangled spider with instep control is much harder to pass. need to change direction and go elbow/forearm into bend of knee and smash legs, go around.

-from turtle- way to take the back from control position. need to block leg and roll into hooks.

-spider control- if they start to react to one spider variant, switch to another or pressure another way. don't just sit there.

-key to spider- bottom person having top person's arm's bent and pressured.

-key to passing spider- straightening arms out, getting out of range of their legs. much better to pass standing, from knees you have less control and get drawn right into their game.

rolling

-need to practice single leg on shoulder pass after i get good at 101 pass. triangles are eminent.

-need to practice escaping triangles.

-need to practice side control still!

-need to figure out 101 pass better.

-passing- can't let them control my posture. especially my collar/neck area. takes away a lot of my leverage.

-de la riva hook- don't need to bend out leg at extreme angle to get rid of it- just a bit over 90 degrees so they can't hook.

-my blue belt journey will concentrate on top game. bottom is strong enough for now, but the top game needs plenty of work. gotta get rid of the ego and just focus on learning.

-brabo choke- need to lock up the choke tight before i drop to my back. best chance to get it when i am already on my knees. maybe lead in with the darce first?
