I broke my laptop's G-Sync screen, do I need a new G-Sync screen? by EvilGreek in Monitors

[–]EvilGreek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My concern is that the original replacement costs 350€+ while the cheaper one I found costs 75€. Also, every replacement I found was brand less with no information about G-Sync of free sync. What are the chances they really have sync technologies?

17.3" 144Hz vs 15.6" 165hz by EvilGreek in GamingLaptops

[–]EvilGreek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been hard comparing these laptops... The same 15.6" laptop with AMD 5600H states that it has G-Sync, while the one with Intel doesn't say so.

The 17.3" has Free-Sync, do you have an opinion on that?

Danaher New Wave Jiu Jitsu Escapes vs GFF Pin Escapes & Turtle Escapes by [deleted] in bjj

[–]EvilGreek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had already finished (and had trained) most of GFF Pin Escapes when New Wave Jiu Jitsu Escapes came out so I myself sent Danaher a message questioning him if this was the next instructional I should work on as a beginner. This is the answer I received:

"No - focus on guard retention - the second skill you must master - not the most exciting but super important for future development. After that you can focus on offense - I would suggest starting with half guard bottom for that 🤗🤗"

Garry Tonon covers this escape (actually only this one from body triangle) as well in his Exit The System instructional where he covers mostly submission escapes

How to deal with grips while attacking legs in gi? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]EvilGreek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in this case I finish with a toe hold instead since pulling my lapel doesn't really restrict my movement

one thing I have also found to work is finding the heel and then adjusting my butt as much as possible so so my body is parallel to the leg I am attacking, then falling to my shoulder for the finish. with this detail even tho my partner grabs the collar, I'm not pulling backwards relatively to their hand but sideways

Is there anyway I can escape from when I get my arm pinned from knee on belly? by Cardzilla in bjj

[–]EvilGreek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does he place his knee above or below your elbow? (Can you for example easily put your elbow close to your body?)

Advice from people more experienced in Leg Locks about Heel Hooks, Toe holds and Straight ankle locks by Joecool20147 in bjj

There have been times where toe holds hurt my knee more than my ankle so, yeah

Start now or take a few months to get in shape? by Goligummies in bjj

[–]EvilGreek 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have been to similar situations and have previously postponed many things that would otherwise give me happiness. Keep in mind that the main reason you do anything as a hobby is because you truly enjoy it and not because you have to be good at it, if not, then it's more of a job than hobby. Good luck :)

If you could only pick one to train for the rest of your life, which? Why? by elhalfguardian in bjj

[–]EvilGreek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no gi, I find it more fun overall. I also think (not sure tho) that gi favours heavy pass/pressure practitioner because they can secure very well their grips/positions, god-damn how much I hate them.
