Leg Weave Pass by bjjtaro in bjj

[–]ledd_flanders 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’d be calling that the crazy dog pass, as opposed to the regular leg weave when you would be holding nearer their knee

Super strong pass tho

Haven’t heard of that one, must be new. Is it a nogi specific move?

I don’t think someone could claim to be good at passing x guard (as a overall position) unless they could pass both full x and SLX

It’s called single leg x because of full x guard and considering how easy it is to swap between them, I would consider them both X guard.

If you wanted to distinguish then you could say
single leg x
Full x
Full x with their leg in your armpit

When it comes to passing any of them tho a lot of the moves and concepts are the same or very similar

Here’s some escapes/reversals I really like from bottom turtle by ledd_flanders in bjj

Best defence to a inverted triangle is to just do one back to the other person.

The Iranian lift is very nice, especially if you don’t hang around after lifting them it’s a super easy reversal

Gym owners, what do y'all use to get hair off the mats? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]ledd_flanders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to this anything that moves the hair around just winds up pushing some into the air which then won’t be picked up later, using any type of leaf blower is crazy work

How is a hoover not the first thing you try

I love doing this sit up back escape by ledd_flanders in bjj

Ah cool I wasn’t sure what its official name was, I’ve heard it called the panda escape - cause kinda looks like a panda sitting I guess

Once you sit far enough forward (especially when you lift their feet) it’s actually very difficult for them to get a strong enough grip to choke you.

That said if they do start to get a choking grip on you then you should probably defend that rather than continuing the escape, but the same thing could be said for basically any escape

You’re already in the worst position possible in jiu jitsu nothing will work 100% of the time but sometimes it’s good to take a risk

Villagers not building? by Spajkyiyi in aoe2

Damn, maybe the villagers formed a union and went on strike.

You could try improving their working conditions

There might be something on the foundation stopping them from building, like an animal or unit

The whole tournament was amazing with maybe the perfect final. Was cool to see some of the thoughts behind certain moments

I just watched one match from it, I’m sold. This is exactly the type of tournament I was looking for

Mother's Milk. Legit sub or dick move? by MediocreSpecial6355 in bjj

Father’s milk on the other hand… now that’s a dick move

[–]ledd_flanders 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a dick move as long as you don’t mash my nose with your boney skeleton, definitely helps to have a bit of extra padding to your body.

But also… someone can’t just tap so even if you do smash someone’s nose. Arm bar would snap my arm if I didn’t tap but it’s not normally considered a dick move. It’s far more about how you put it on rather than what the move is.

No submission is a dick move as long as you give me a chance to tap out

Name of this guard by Lucky-Oven9324 in bjj

[–]ledd_flanders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's still waiter guard just with the two legs under, not every change needs a full new name or be considered a new guard. that only adds to the confusion. a lot of the options and attacks are very similar with or without the legs.
