gameplanning

effective-

-strategy from the feet
-open guard for the most part- recovery, control, sweeps
-passing sequence generally works
-half guard top

to work on-

-z-guard- when opponent laces legs- switch to 93 guard?
-reverse de la riva or deep half- keep arm tight- avoid underhook
-de la riva guard- where to put free leg when they keep stuffing it
-timing
