It’s funny you ask, right after that match I got obsessed with escaping closed guard and got really good at this one as a result of that loss. It was very motivating haha
Dom, how do you prevent the bottom person from sweeping you with "mermaid sweep"? I love this move but I get swept a lot especially when going against someone with longer legs.
He actually talks about that in the previous video where he is rolling with the brown belt. He says you just need to put one of your knees down on the mat to open up their legs.
Thanks for the video! I’ve tried this guard break in the past and I stopped because I was getting caught with double ankle sweeps. How do you avoid that?
