ive got an eighth grader who is decent on his feet, decent leg rider but seems to hesitate and lose that initial window on bottom. A lot of collective experience and knowledge on this board, whats the best way to improve escape from bottom.

Cary Kolat(or maybe his father)-CATTLE PROD.
You would probably get arrested for doing it now, but that is a surefire way to get the mindset right. You have to envision something like drowning. Someone is holding you under water and if you don’t escape quickly you literally die.
As was said above, mindset is key. That or tree trunk legs like Phil Keddy. Other than that it is drill over and over again and chain wrestle Throughout. The initial move almost never gets you there against good competition, but constant motion after that move is what creates more and more separation
Finally, if you have access to FLO, watch Jason Tsirtsis show his sit out series. He was about the best from bottom that I have seen in quite some time due to that move and how he chain wrestled through it.
I tell you, when I saw CATTLE PROD in your title, I burst out laughing. All I could imagine was an electric cattle prod in the rear end! It never failed to move cattle or hogs!

Hand control is not the whole answer but helps immensely
Yep, I was going to say cover the hands right away and don't stop moving.
I was coaching in Dallas and Slay came and gave a clinic. His version of the stand-up is the best method I have seen. Not really a stand up, but more of a hip heist-out combined with stand up elements. Prevents ankle and spiral rides. As in all wrestling it has to be done off the whistle fluidly.

Tsirtsis sit out will do the trick.Cary Kolat(or maybe his father)-CATTLE PROD.
