    went through a similiar phase myself, try working different transitions. North south, twister side control, and various options to get to mount. I spend minimum time in side control now as i know i will get too complacent. Once i get full mount i find i need to finish somehow, usually an americana or slow triangle. Keeps it interesting, otherwise try starting in a dominated position, opponent in side control or mount and see how long they can maintain position.

    Maybe, you need to get over the obsession of not being tapped and throw caution to the wind....after all it's just rolling and it's practice so just go outside your comfort zone ans see what happens.
    :thumb I did you what you said last night and it was my best session for a very long time. I tapped everybody I rolled with and pulled off some stuff that never usually works for me (half guard sweep to kneebar) and it seemed to take much less energy than usual and was a lot more fun.

    Cheers

    Don't wanna spoil your thunder..but one thing to keep in mind is if you sub your usual partners could be because they are used to you sitting still, so you completly caught em off guard - so do not be disheartened if they get onto you over the next couple of weeks...just something to make you think (hint keep switching your game plan, pin em and make em suffer wera em out whatever ...then BOOOOOM) - sub :thumb
