@BigolePappy2 That gym was a decent size, just lots of people training. We're in a new place now though, which is twice the size :-) We had 70 people at a recent seminar and all could train (drilling not rolling) at the same time.
i was sparring with a purple, i manage to get to side control but i cant really maintain the position. look at people like braulio, he just keep it with ease.
Braulio has the best Gi instructional, I've never learned so much from a DVD, ust do not tell him I downloaded it. Seriously you were very lucky to roll with him. That strangle at 1:10 is old school and great.
Yeah, I honestly don't see that as one of the best things to do in that position, but it's amazing that he knew exactly where you were going and that he was able to do it.
Thats awesome that you got to roll with him though!!
@RobJT The reason I asked about the Darce/Brabo is because I can tell he has an affinity for arm triangles and I was wondering if he uses the Darce a lot, or just the regular arm triangle.
Good stuff. Although, it looks like that gym needs more mat space.

The depressing thing is that I know that the guy rolling with Braulio would run rings around me if we rolled!

So tight and technical! Perfect pressure.

@Inev123 Watching him do that helped me avoid it when I rolled with him next round! I have also seen him do it on numerous occasions prior to that.
I've tried using it myself with varied success. I certainly can't do it as easily as Braulio can to people of a high level!! The guy is a beast.

@RobJT Do you get to roll with Braulio regularly? How much nogi do you guys do? Does Braulio teach the Darce/Brabo choke? Sorry for the 21 questions.

@WhtMike2006 Not that often sadly, I don't train at his main academy (200 miles away) so just at seminars really.
He uses head & arm control a lot to pass gi and nogi.
