Bruno leg drag

squat stance
break collar and then clear dlr hook (standing: quick pop out. or quick kneel to other arm helps to disarm)
lean weight on knee and open the angle your knee
sole of foot stays in contact with ground (whole sole- do not lean on toes)
heel of palm collar grip to pin them to ground
outside pants grip

a) they do not put pressure on your hip- pop hip and drag

b) they put pressure on your hip- slight back step (not too much) and drag across
*drag straight across, not crescent like before

-->either drop straight to knees or inward knee pressure/toes point towards opponent's hip

finish-
keep pants grip
transfer to collar grip
open your knee and plant on mat
hook instep to prevent 50/50 recovery
*best with both knees on mat- adjust to sink lower to plant second knee
smash their knees down
belt grip or horse collar grip
pressure on hips/leg, not high on head/shoulders

head position: either spearing them in the chin or on far shoulder (think about the end of the pass)

1) high knee in armpit. grab crossface over the arm and pressure with shoulder. switch grip to smash the legs down and complete the pass.

2) keep horse collar and use shoulder to prop them up. get head on other side of arm. chin tight on other side of shoulder. seatbelt grip. hip ride/back take position. either insert bottom hook as they turtle or insert top hook and roll them the other way.

-----

leg drag counters-
-elbow on mat, shrimp out
-50/50 if the leg is loose
-tripod up and weave top leg back into play
-weave bottom leg over into spider play before they settle the knee and smash you down

-------

passing stuff-
-never leave the knee open when passing half guard positions.
-pinch knees, knee in hip (with hip switch), or knee in armpit
-work on shoulder crossface with lapel tail

vs. deep half
-walk foot to butt. inward knee pressure. either crossface/sprawl underhooked leg back or jump head. open knee slightly to create space before jumping head.

vs. deep half with lapel grip
-grab own lapel end with two hands and yank up to strip

vs. bernardo faria sweep
-break grip on leg side first and then head side next

vs. faria sweep when you can't break the grips
-something to do with jumping your hip to the other side as they come up. switch your base?

vs. deep half to shins in bend of knee with ankle grip
-strip ankle, windshield wiper the leg back and hook over the shins with your instep. come to side or jump to mount

-------

vs. reverse dlr-
-did not go over, but i guarantee that i need to position my free leg better
