You know... the one thing I would like to change the most in this video is a word. Instead of taken, I should said that many people have been given credit for the pass.
@Ron Curtis Nah. Just felt appropriate. I first learned it as the Wilson pass, and that was because he was just devastating people with it left and right in competition.
It’s not only the move, but the concept that changed. You original talk about the knees being pushed to one side, which is the original mistake as it allows the opponents legs to attack you. The way you do it now is splitting the legs apart, by wedging your armpit and ribs into their hip flexor hence they can’t retract their leg to attack. Passing at close quarters can be squashing the knees and creating spinal twist as you mentioned, but this pass imo works better with the leg split flatten to match hip control. Best
I have been trying to make this pass work for years off and on. I have still have not made it work on larger guys or skilled guard players. I really like this detail and look forward to trying it. Thanks for the tip! If it works I will sing your praises for sure
I tried your Wilson pass from a previous video and I have added it to my passing game. Thanks for the tip on blocking the hip. This is my go to pass when the other ones don't work and it sort of confuses your partner because he thinks your posture is broken and you're in trouble. I also like pinning their hand behind their back and passing them. Thanks for the tip on the dangers and how to fix it.
believe it or not but I'm doing the Sao Paolo pass to the other side with a head and arm grip (like kesa gatama), I put my head on the ground and tripod and pass that way. I know this is "wrong" due to risk of back exposure if they can get their head out but I find it more effective. There's no risk of triangle chokes, omoplata's or whatever. My arm that goes around his head grips the gi in the armpit and that is very secure.
Really enjoying studying this pass. Great detail on pinning the far arm as opposed to underhooking the far arm. Obviously the underhook prevents the back take a bit better but if you’re mindful of the backtake with the pinning position the risk can be mitigated. An understanding of the underlying principles is paramount which makes this pass so darned interesting.
Thanks so much for the content, very helpful and greatly appreciated. Did you end up including the link to the original video? I can’t seem to find it. Thanks so much!
Nice seeing all the ways it COULD go wrong. No one ever shows that- so youtube students end up picking up a move from youtube and get their back taken 20 times because of a detail.
Hi Kenneth! As you are doing and mastering this technic you should know what bothers you so how do you conter this Sao Paulo pass when you are doing guard?
how do you deal with a really explosive person who always is moving and scrambling. their moving side to side knee on belly here there everywhere and it feels like your chasing your own tail

@@amazingGrace108 My first reaction? It looks like a back take waiting to happen.

Like this grip much more than the hook. Feels a lot less vulnerable to attacks.

Hi Kenneth! As you are doing and mastering this technic you should know what bothers you so how do you conter this Sao Paulo pass when you are doing guard?
how do you do it without the gi
Does the hip pin/arm pit anchor prevent your opponent to push your head away as was demonstrated the first time?
Amazing
how do you deal with a really explosive person who always is moving and scrambling. their moving side to side knee on belly here there everywhere and it feels like your chasing your own tail
Dealing with those kinds of opponents is why lapel guards and more intricate entanglements have been developed.
@@KennethBrown true, any particular type? like an example.
