thank you master Saulo, i'm judoka but when i'm going into newaza this hapening to me very many times, now with these littles details i'm sure i'm gonna pass the half guard (soy hispanoparlante, espero se haya entendido)
when u do the esgrima pass with the collar grip and flat palm to the floor, i noticed that ur butt was up high, but when u repeated the belt grip pass, u stated the butt is not to be up high anymore. why is it different with the belt pass? is it because as u state the hip is already turned to the left already? or is there another reason for it that i missed?
Your body should be too high on him for him to properly execute the omoplata. Your shoulder would have to be closer to his hip for him to hit that on you, if he tries it while you're too high up on him then he's giving up position.
