oldwrestler - One detail I picked up that helped me avoid the person going north south is to really sit up tall as fast as you can. Staying flat on your back or coming up shallow on you elbow, curled up, gives them a path to run around to north south, but if you push and sit up tall on your hand (maybe like the start of a turkish get up), they run into your head/body, which gives you some time to work your way out. Also look how he is scooting back, once he sits up. I am still working on this one alot, since my instincts are really the opposite of what makes this work. The sit up tall detail was on one of Marcelo's video.VU thanks for the tip
