NICE.
PS - Do I know this friend? :)
No, no, different friend. :)
Marcos is actually busy with kettlebells and firearms combatives right now.
I'm the one who's busy using Roy's "elbow pulling" concept during rolling.
Marcelo may move like a feather, shifting directions constantly, but he does not, NOT, feel like one.

EXACTLY.
My friend would make a move, and Marcelo would just disappear. He felt pressure from SOMEWHERE, but he didn't feel like he was in danger.
Before he knew it, he was tapping.
