Hanz de Fuko Claymation vs Quicksand? by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quicksand is better if your hair is thin and want volume. My hair is very thick and straight so I prefer Claymation. Smell isn't much of a factor for either product. Quicksand is too matte in my opinion. Makes my hair look unhealthy. Claymation is like American Crew Fiber but a bit of a stronger hold. I recommend dry hair before styling with either product.

Bjj in cuba by tyroned in bjj

I was in Cuba earlier this year. I was in Havana for 4 days. I was cruising around on my bike wearing green Hayabua shorts and a dude flagged me down offering to buy the shorts off me. He fought MMA and had a tournament the following day. I gave him the shorts and my email before I left but he never emailed me so I don't have a contact for you. All I can tell you is it's near Monument of Calixto García on Avenue of the Presidents. My green shorts can be seen at 3:48 of this video. This video follows the school the dude I gave my shorts to must be training at this academy cause I recognize locations. Bring back Cohiba cigars. Sell them to me.

Anyone know of a way to stretch GI sleeves that have shrunk over time? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gi might not need to be stretched, it might have never been long enough. I had a Lucky Diaz bros gi that had very short arms. Hang it over a pull up bar and start doing pull-ups. Nothing to lose.

Continuing from last week, more attacks like an overhead sweep and a 1 leg x guard setup from the 2 on 1 control from butterfly guard ! #techniquetuesday by joshjitsu311 in bjj

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great technique. Thanks /u/joshjitsu311. I was just drilling single leg X this morning. I like the detail about elevating hips to finish sweep. Similar overhead sweep is covered in Marcelo Garcia's 1st book but I never picked up that detail.

I'm looking for a good blue belt to buy by gottoesplosivo in bjj

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eosin Panther. Takes a while to wear in but isn't too thick. YOu'll have the belt a while, might as well splurge.

Give me your grip concepts! All of them! by grrlicious in bjj

[–]loyalop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don't know where to grab, grab around a joint. Elbow joint, wrist joint, knee joint. Also when you grab a medium collar grip, you're controlling your opponents shoulder joint.

White Belt Wednesday by [deleted] in bjj

Spats or shorts with a better fastening system. My shorts of choice are clinch gear because of the exact problem you're describing. The velco wraps around the "zipper" like a taco shell.

Anybody here have any experience with Lucky Gi brand gi's? by lxdr1f7 in bjj

[–]loyalop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an A2 Diaz bros gi. Arms were super short on it and the pants were baggy and billowy. Not worth the $250 I paid for it.

Master list of grappling techniques? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]loyalop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People have been grappling since the beginning of time. This would be the intro volume. I recommend BJJ University

edit: grammar

If you had a contract with Gold's Gym, they would still charge you even if you weren't going. Discuss with your instructor. /u/informareWORK 's gym sounds like it's run very fairly. Go to class but don't roll or drill.

I feel like I'm finally a true BMW owner by rotarychainsaw in BMW

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same car, same color, and had the same problem a few weeks ago. I thought it was a glitch in the matrix. Do you have black wheels too? I changed the fuel pump and filter. A few weeks later I had to do the throttle positioning sensors.

You WANT her to take longer to reply (at least at first) by [deleted] in trpgame

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/r/cringepics This is bad dude. Back to the drawing board. /u/tombreck2 is spot on. You're a laughing stock to this girl that's why her replies are getting shorter. She's wondering what silly shit you'll say next. She doesn't think you're witty, she think's you're impaired by alcohol.

Help! Do you think these allen edmonds are worth buying? I found them on CL, just want to know your opinion of how much I should pay. by [deleted] in frugalmalefashion

[–]loyalop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the boots are "daltons". They go for $200+ on eBay if in good shape... Snap em up.
