Starting with Seat-Belt after Roll from Turtle-Position
Marcelo has his advanced students work specific training, wherein your partner starts 'Turtled' on bottom, and you fasten the Seat-Belt on top without hooks. Live rolling doesn't begin until the top player has rolled over to the far/opposite side while holding onto Seatbelt Control. Once the top player (now, underneath but with dominant control still) lands on his or her back, the person with their back taken may begin to escape or reverse the position. This drill is good practice for developing the skills necessary for maintaining Back-Control long enough to hunt for a finish against a defensively sound opponent.
