I always studied Rafa armbars throughout his career and tried recreating them in my own training. Love the detail of crossing the feet because, I always felt the notion of not crossing as lack of understanding why to cross to begin with. Perfect example is comparing it to close guard, always stronger to cross. Rafas small details is truly on another level, the 🐐 of all goats.
Your explanations make this very easy to follow - thank you! I never learned why you cross your feet in armbars but it makes perfect sense now. I also notice that your finishing position isn't usually with feet crossed especially during contingency plans so it's more of a best case scenario (like closed guard vs open guard).

Imagine someone telling Rafa Mendes he’s doing a technique wrong. Dude probably did an arm bar on the doctor while he was being born.
This is the single best BJJ video I’ve ever watched. The details are just incredible.
