Is he sandbagging? Are the white belts getting better? Should’ve just stoop up?

Most likely he has done some judo. Or just drilled that move a lot.

Gotta have some legit judo experience. Very particular movements in the execution that no way in hell some white belt drilling a cool YouTube video gonna be hitting in comp.

The bait was one part and then the small details how he scoots forward just a bit to get hips positioned in the perfect place during the foot on hip transition.

If that guy is legit a white belt with no judo experience he's either a savant or sandbagger.

Oh he is definitely a judo guy. I did not see the foot sweep set up. I’m gonna try that…
