i can vouch that sweep's half guard sucks... i pass through it like a hot knife through butter (lol).

my half guard is okay... im usually successful at getting full guard back.

what works for me is grabbing the pant of his "escaped leg" at the knee and controling that leg. either lift it or push it down just enough to get your leg passed it to get full guard.

there's also a cool "elevator" move from that control position to get full guard. it's kinda hard to explain, but maybe i'll show it to sweep and he can try and explain(lol).

TRAIN ON!
