If Gi is more technical for developing your escapes, then you argument would have to be the same for attacking with submission in No-Gi. If its "easier" to escape submission No-GI because they just "slip out" then Submission offense in No-Gi would require more technique to prevent your opponent from just "slipping out of stuff".Quote:

Eddie wears Gi pants & rash guards/leg sleeves etc..why? I believe for more grip so people don't "slip-out" right.lol The Gi slows the game make it more technical. You guys might as well grapple in the wrestling singlet quit putting clothes on & trying to imitate the Gi.lolQuote:

I honestly dont care which I do. Im loyal to 10th Planet & No Gi but if the only I can roll is to put the gi on Ill do it. Like I said I dont really care as long as I get to roll. Way I see it they are 2 different sports under the same concept. As far as wearing clothes in No Gi I wear tights under my shorts and a rashguard to not get mat herpes. Grip is a factor I try not to worry about. If he slips out then try something else thats the beauty of it. I hate rollin with guys that just wear shorts and that's it. Im one of the few who doesnt join the Gi vs No Gi Battle I just say F**ck It LETS ROLL!!!!!!!
Are you allowed to grip their knee brace? No-gi doesn't mean you have to roll naked!Quote:
