2 Part Lesson -- Marcelo points attention to the dichotomous relationship between passing with control and passing with speed when sweat becomes a factor in nogi: When you're still dry during the early goings of a match, you can more readily apply kneeling passes; incrementally isolating your way up the kinetic chain of your opponent's body in a series of immobilization. Examples include pummeling for a lock around the opponent's waist (Double Underhooks) and executing a Folding Pass to Side Control or Mount, or forcing the Half Guard for a Knee-Cut Pass. [02:53] When friction diminishes due to perspiration, your opponent will oftentimes slip free from your control if you intend on passing with a tight and slow game. In these scenarios, it's best to stand up and increase your mobility; however, the increase in distance may allow your opponent to stand up back to his or her feet much easier than before. Keep a hand on the opponent's torso to help push them down and flat if you need to keep the fight on the ground while you stand to pass. Standing passes in this situation are the Circle Pass, Knee-Slide Pass, Back-Step, Standing-Step, and many others. Knowing the distinction between when to pass tightly and on the knees or passing loose and with quickness can make all the difference in terms of effectively expending your effort in training.
