What is your favourite gi or gi brand?
Question for my pajama friends out there. I have a batch 11 Shoyoroll that I really enjoy. Falling apart a bit but I still love it.

Kingz and AP Gi’s are my favourite great feel and cut and long lasting it’s the best bang for your buck in my opinion

Question to Black Belts
My question to all black belts is, how long did it take you to get your black belt? what were some lessons you've learned whilst getting it, and what does life feel like after getting it?

Never be afraid to learn. knowledge can come from anyone I have learned things from white belts. Everyone views things differently and sometimes the different outlook can be very helpful when added to what you already knew.

CJI Day 2
The first ever CJI tournament is in the books! My take: Pros: The innovations that separated them from every other Jiu-jitsu event - The Alley, multiple rounds, 10 point must, open scoring - all seemed to work great for the athletes, the viewers, and the sport! Obviously, the money for the athletes was the biggest game changer of all, with two new millionaire athletes in the sport. Lots of money raised for charities. Cons: The judges criteria seemed a little ambiguous in tightly contested matches. The worst example, IMO, was the -80 finals. I really felt they got round 4 completely backwards, and that would have changed who won the million. The Gabi vs Craig match was a total side show. That being said, I don't know how else it could have played out, but the circus aspect was a little cringe/embarrassing. Just my opinion. The animus with ADCC was taken too far. I get that they were trying to make a point, but ADCC is by far the most important tournament that our sport has. Watching the tone of the trolls online, they've made it a zero sum equivalence between CJI and ADCC. That's going to destroy ADCC in the long run. Something that took nearly 30 years to build, and is not easy to replace. Best case scenario: CJI sticks around and becomes the highest paying event in the sport. ADCC sticks around and grows their brand as well as their fighter pay. Everyone chills the F out with the negativity towards either, and we all win! What are your thoughts? ⬇️⬇️

The Alley was the highlight for CJI it added a great dynamic to the fights in the way it can be used and keep the action going without stopping. The 10 point must system is great too just needs a little tweaking in what the criteria is there was some decision making I feel was wrong as well.

Imposter Syndrome?
I was promoted to Brown Belt almost two weeks ago and I definitely feel like I'm not ready. Anyone else feel that before and after being promoted?

I’m a black belt and there’s days I feel like I should be a white belt again
