First Few Tournament Rolls

Yo Forum!

Started training in June and have done three tournaments since then. Below are a couple of my matches from my first comp(NAGA PDX), and from my second(IBJJF Revolution @ Bonney Lake). HUGE thanks to my coaches Nathan Orchard and Phil Schwartz for helping me on this journey and being rad in general. Big ups to all my training partners who continue to sharpen me up RzaRazorSharp! (links are in order from most recent to my first match ever) Criticisms are welcome:)

You've had a really productive 6 months. Looked good. Defend that darce before its connected.

How did the last match end?

Sam is quickly becoming a very dangerous man. Thanks for all the hard work you put in.

Hey Bobby, The match where i'm having serious darce problems ended with the other guy up on points. I regained guard and threw up a desperation triangle to no avail in the last few seconds. My coaches were all over it and we drilled darce escapes all week:)

I kinda foresaw that. You have amazing coaches. Clearly visible by your performance.

That's a good sign that you're at the right gym.

Keep competing. It's gonna keep making your Jiu Jitsu stronger, and it'll teach you so many important things about yourself whether you win or lose.

You're doing great!
