Did anyone else notice how basically sets you up for a triangle but posting on his leg like that. He even turns you so you have a better angle to put the triangle on. Im pretty sure a whitebelt would get a triangle on him

Anyone ever watch the early 90's Gracie instructionals? That's the first guard pass they teach.
Except that they teach how to do it PROPERLY. There are several things wrong with how he's teaching it here, but one of the most glaring is the fact that he fails to control the leg he's not under-hooking AND he's extending his inside arm fully; thereby giving them a gift wrapped triangle.

That's more/less what I was thinking. It looks like he is trying to teach the most basic/beginner type of guard pass but just using really sloppy technique.
"The Gracie Gift" as it's called, is actually a solid pass when done correctly.

well it's not that pass... And yes every single pass ever invented is a solid pass when "done correctly" but what is your opponent going to do? Stay still so you can get your technique perfectly? No, things like that pass are not used because you have a small "margin for error". Heck even rorion's boys don't use that pass when they competed.
did you notice the douchebag deleted all the comments telling him how much he sucks?
