Zen Camp 2020: Sweeps from side control with Francesco Fonte 

Been waiting patiently, and this video did not disappoint. World class instruction, and I like how Francesco tied it back to the previous lesson making the scissor sweep make more sense. He's a gifted instructor and I cannot wait for the "postura" instructional. I've never seen some of these details, like driving with the heels. It feels like you could drive upwards with more power than with flat feet, or toes. Getting the elbow to the hip is another fine detail as I see so many videos say get the forearm inside, but the top person crushes that arm, and you might hurt your elbow in the process. The material in here is pure gold! Hope to see more from him!!!

Your videos deserve so much appreciation. Good as gold

Very first exposure to Mr. Fonte. Will definitely not be the last! Video filled with real gems.

I am so absorbed with this move, I have watched it more times than you can count, so unique, absolutely killer moves

Amazing stuff ❤

Love the video great Details ;)

super explications. Oss!

Great video!

I really love this move as a concept - but I've had such a hard time executing it during rolls. I can't seem to create enough space to get my knee in, or to get the single butterfly hook. As soon as I start to create space, the person drives back in. I can frame on the hip to maintain some space, but with long legs, it isn't enough room to get the knee in or the butterfly hook.

Thanks.

Good class

Thank you! 💪. The hand used as a wedge on the knee - does that adequately prevent an attempted post with that leg to stop the roll?

I like it, but what's preventing him posting with the left hand? Ill have to try it but that seems like a huge flaw in this sweep

13:35 - Saulo Ribero has a great breakdown of the butterfly sweep talking about a similar concept. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_3braRnOwFo.html

Would have been nice to see angle from other end to see where legs were going from the outset
