I very much look forward to coming to roll with your squad this summer man. All murphy, no Veritas.

Cool guillotine. Guy seemed clueless on how to defend and just kind of sat in your guard and let you extend. Bet he's never heard of a Von Flue before, haha

No surprise at lack of arm drags, trips, throws, and shots at this level but there were a lot of opportunities to take that guy down, especially with how far he was leaning over. It will come in time.

As for my video, he was going full force but I play a very relaxed game that makes it look effortless (which it is most of the time, but can be very deceiving other times). He wouldn't have punched me in the balls by accident defending the straight armbar from standing late in the video if we were flow rolling... but to be fair, his full force is certainly not the aggression of a D1 wrestler or competitive medalist or anything. Good dude.

He just got his purple and was getting his traditional break-in. Proud of him, he's being doing back to back 6a and 8:30a classes for the past 5 months 3-4x a week.
