I did the same thing. I had a friend in Europe with some connections find someone. I used this guy. Sorry if I'm breaking some rule. Definitely not gaining anything. Nafees was a good guy to work with. It is a long process, and he will definitely keep in touch. He is easy to get in touch with...

Sorry. I wasn't sure if I'd get banned for posting a link to my listing. All of them are white with gray stitching. http://m.ebay.com/itm/131482838106?nav=SEARCH

I'll post one on the listing

Hey guys. I just posted a little more in depth in the gear section, but I wanted you guys to know because this is where I spend my time. I don't post here as much, but this board really helped me back in the day, and there have always been great people on here. My buddy and I decided to make...

Hey guys. I've been on these boards for a long time. They really helped me back in the day. I don't get on as much these days, but I still love Sherdog. My buddy and I, he's a black belt, and I'm a brown, love rolling but we are both cheap bastards. I hadn't bought a gi in. 4 years and his...

This guy to me is too high for a low pass. He has gotten stuck in the middle and that is a mistake. Really tough to hit on a guy that is staying low. By low I mean his shoulder should be on the guy's gut

Absolutely agree. This is the style we teach at our gym and it is a hell of a lot more than jabbing with your head. Keeping the right head position and eliminating space with your shoulder prevents collar chokes. It pisses me off when guys from other gyms come in get their game neutralized and...

I agree about the purple and gray. I ordered a gray Gi and was pumped to wear it. Then I got my brown and it looks terrible. Not complaining. I can't stand black gis. I feel like I'm rolling with ninjas. Just personal though.

Stephens fights at 170.

+1 Zankou I can tell you it is well used at my school. I wouldn't feel loved without an forearm across my throat. We fully believe in a pressure top game and that is a big part of it. Bottom line do what works or someone else will.

Ha Ha. My training partner is a hell of a brown belt, and nothing pisses him off more than me hitting this.

Ok. It has been a long time since I posted. I'm going through some neck problems, and it has caused me to reevaluate some things. Yesterday I was going with another good purple belt from a different school (no gi). From the top I controlled his legs and started to work my way up for side...

Turn into him get your bottom hand on his hip to relieve some pressure. Underhook with your top hand (hard to describe) use the underhook to hip out. He's a better grappler and it is pretty tough to get advice off of a forum. Watch some high level matches and do what they do.

Masters in Educational Leadership. I'm working on my doctorate.

I'll be at grappler's quest. I hadn't even heard about the US Grappling tournament.

Key is the underhook. Also making sure that as you hip down you are trapping that leg. You have to be about even with your crotch. As you switch your hips maintain pressure. It's safe if you are technical.

You are always going to have a mix. Usually you should open up your game with higher level and lower level guys. Roll with a little more intensity when matched evenly. I want people to work on their weaknesses. We use a lot of isolation, so if you suck at half guard sweeps you get a lot of...

Wouldn't have explained this if I had went to the last page and seen MC explaining it! I'll leave it up though. Went to a really small seminar with Jeff Monson. He said to make sure their chin is facing away from your body. Then he said hold it like a baby which was funny with him flexing...

Most new big guys want to get really high when in your guard. it allows you to get your hips free. Use underhooks to get them higher then work to the back. If you are in half scoot your hips to get to the back or go to a butterfly. Also, keep busy. Trap an arm, grab the head, and try to...

I'm a 260 pound purple. As a big guy, I have the most trouble with a RNC. My training partner is a 200 pound brown belt and he will catch me in a RNC 10 to 1 of everything else. I go with a 6ft 7 330 pounder 6ft 2 280 power lifter and a 6ft2 320 pound former state champion wrestler. That...
