There are to views to this:
Roger Gracie says that it is impossible to open a guard unless you stand.
The Rickson Gracie school encourages opening the guard from sitting position.

Vojkan Trifunovic I was going to comment about Roger. But o think that we don't need to be closed in the techiniques that just works in high level competition. 99,99% of people are just regular praticians that can make inumerous techiniques that are just ignored in high level competition because people are just to strong, fast technical

As a heavy guy, are there not additional advantages to passing with a pressure pass or stacking? Also I’m really tired of dealing with good open guard players and if I don’t stand, they often can’t play open guard. This allows me to nullify a big chunk of their skills.
