1. Did anyone read jiu jitsu magazine spread on metamoeis? Crazy biased and just a silly read.
2. When you read it check out the Manto ad. The rashie looks eerily similar to a 10P rashie.
I thought jjm were supporters?

I don't know the specifics, so before we jump to any conclusions why don't we find out who the author of the article as that might explain the bias right there. before we hate a whole organization for one author's opinions.
Oh man, which issue?
I love that mag, but I can't stand for any more of this Gracie conspiracy coverage.
We're behind in Aussie land, is it the one with Kit Dale on the cover?
No. Andre Galvao and Atos just got mine yesterday
Team Atos is the main picture but Kit has a small picture on the cover.Quote:

I can't tell the difference between all the gi's out there if you took the brand name off them.Quote:

Well the Manto is similar but different. I'm not sure that case would win in court.Quote:

Saw the article today. First obvious thing is the author does not understand !0th Planet Jiu Jitsu. There were some technique name misunderstandings and guesses to what was going on. So there is a good chance of the usual instructor brain washing implanted to slant the authors words, maybe without them even noticing. Definitely looks like its more on the author than the magazine
Manto's rash guard does look pretty similar but at least they didnt just make an pretty much identical copy like Reign Unlimited did.
