Having trained with Adam I can say the one thing that goes unnoticed is his grip. That guy gets a hold of your collar or sleeve and he owns that thing until he decides he doesn’t.
I had a similar experience with Travis Stevens. If he grips your sleeve, you no longer own that arm anymore, it's his now, and you aren't getting it back.

One of the great things that BJJ teaches us is "leave your ego outside the mat", even Adam which is a world champion taps on training, I love BJJ more and more everyday
I was always curious how he brings people to their knees so that he can actually play butterfly guard. I bought his instructional and he doesn't explain it lol. Watching this I can see now how he does it. He goes to shin to shin in various ways to bring them down.
I noticed the same thing, since the sit up guard sometimes results in a knee cut if you're not fast enough. I also noticed he does a hip escape and pulls people forward to insert the hook.
He does mention it in one of his videos with Bernado. The shin on shin "scoop" thing he does either from half or in this vid he does it holding the back of the opponents knee with his hand, to bring their knee to the mat. He explains how he then wraps his foot around their shin/foot to stop them standing again :)
