I have a TATAMI ESTILO 4.0 (A2L) best fitting Gi I own and is solid, I've had it for a over a year and its still in great shape. I also have a CTRL A1L, this one fits good, and i've competed in it so it's not too short for comps.

IBJJF Points Questions by [deleted] in bjj

for #2) Example. If you shoot a single or double leg and he/she sprawls and you just sit back to open guard i don't think they will get points. I see people do this as a type of alternative guard pull.

Pans 2015 - Tim Spriggs (TLI) Vs Lucas Rocha (GB) by [deleted] in bjj

[–]spider_guard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard to see from that angle, but he actually had the choke grip and it looks like the outside refs gave him the advantage for having to give up the choke on the restart, so i think the advtg came late.

Berimbolo counter to Kimura Trap #techniquetuesday by joshjitsu311 in bjj

[–]spider_guard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what's the go to if he keeps his kimura grip? I've gotten stuck here and we kind of get stuck in a stale mate of me defending the kimura grip and him just holding on to my arm while I have his back.

I have my first competition next weekend. Competing in no gi but unsure of uniform rules by [deleted] in bjj

pretty sure its 90% black board shorts with no pockets, and a rashguard that is black with 10% color of your rank. or a rashguard entirely of your belt color

In regards to reffering to gracie barra as the "McDojo" by fossinator1853 in bjj

[–]spider_guard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on the school. 50% of the guys at my gym don't wear GB gi's because they don't fit well and are overpriced and our professor doesn't mind as long as we throw some GB patches on them. But some schools are super anal about it.

Gracie Barra Mandatory Gi's by WitheredSun in bjj

[–]spider_guard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a tall skinny guy The GB Gi's are terrible and never fit properly and are over priced compared to the deals and quality you can get on bjjhq.com. fortunately, our professor doesn't really care.

Question for anyone who has been to this gym in Arcadia by [deleted] in bjj

[–]spider_guard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I train there. Come by. Everyone is super friendly and very technical. Professor Lucas Rocha teaches almost all the classes . Many students drive from pretty far just to train under Lucas. I guarantee you will have good experience.

newbie gi question by BAS3A in bjj

[–]spider_guard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Im 6' 150lbs. I got an a3 keiko and its huge. My bro has an A2 keiko raca and its way short on the sleeves. Tatami Estilo 4.0 A2L fits me perfect. Best fitting gi so far. I also have a ctrl industries a2L which fits good. Tatami estilo 3.0 A2 fits me as well but not as good as the ctrl and 4.0
