I cant get enough of any of them lol I met him at grapplers quest hes an awesome dude

Yeah jt has the best grip strength in the school, atleast according to DJ.

If anyone lives in Vancouver, BC Canada there's a tourney coming up in March in North Van. I got details if anyone is down!

I had always thought belt rank actually meant something at bjj gyms. Turns out it doesn't.

Care to explain a little more? You mean like color or stripes?

Belt colors.
I had always been under the impression people with higher ranking color belt would be better, know some better techniques, actually be able to beat me.

Also, any and all grapplers should subscribe to Jasculs on youtube! Or go like him of Facebook!

I want to win a new gi lol.



I haven't experienced much of this myself, I'm still a bjj noob. I've tapped a few blue belts and a couple purple belts but never more than once or twice, I still notice there is a massive skill disparity between them and me. Just tapping them doesn't speak volumes about their skill to me.

What belt / rank do you hold yourself? I can't remember if I already asked you.

I Haven't done it in about 6 months, when I was going I was white belt for about 9 months. I never ranked up cuz I couldn't afford to buy a diff color belt, yellow if I remember correctly.

That's pretty odd. Do you have a wrestling background or anything?

Where were you training that you were able to beat up higher belts?

Yes thats the thing, I have been around wrestling my whole entire life. A place in a small town near Cleveland ohio, ofc not everyone was the ideal black belt (being a bit older/ Female), but those that were was what surprised me. I love grappling and im not trying to diss them, it was awesome. They brought in this pro fighter who had trained there, and i got to work with him 3 days a week for 2 months before his fight. I love sparring sessions.
