Grappling musings
Getting so close to my first submission. Made four attempts.1) Tried for a guillotine and immediately pulled guard. However, the guy had a wrist on my hand to block my attempt
2) Same guy was in my guard and I worked for a kimura. I got the figure four hold and I was going to try to crank his arm.......but we got too close to the other people beside us. So we had to reposition and I had to give up the kimura
3) Same guy again. His name is Mike. Twice I went for an armbar from mount, but due to sloppy/non-existent technique, I couldn't swing my leg over his face and would end up on my back in guard.
Oh yeah, I now do a rolling kneebar ala Tyson Griffin / Franky Edgar UFC 67 style. And by "do", I mean I have to really think about which leg I use to trap his leg, what arm I'm supposed to use to grab his leg and which direction I'm supposed to roll. Once I figure that out, then i can do it seemlessly
