or... by your logic, you could roll slower with no gi and have the best of both worlds? lmao I just want to bash my head against the wall sometimes.

From my experience training in a gi does make your nogi better. With the gi you must have technical escapes-no relying on sweat to get you out of armbars. If the gi isn't your thing that is cool, I used to have no interest in it whatsoever but now I love rolling gi.
A lot of people don't appreciate the value of gi training for self-defense. In reality, the bully, the unarmed mugger, or the mean drunk who steps up and tries to assault you is more likely to be wearing shirt and pants--and maybe a jacket or windbreaker to boot--than nothing but board shorts. If some drunken oaf tackles me from behind in a bar, a quick rolling loop choke will put him out and have me up and out of there a whole lot faster than trying to take his back and RNC him MMA style.Quote:

Mat time is mat time and the more you have of it the better your transitions and the better your positions will be. Thats why a judo player will be decent at greco-roman wrestling and vice-versa.
What the falcon? You know that they're jumping to start looking and this is not adequate. Let us know why you don't know Kate. When I got a bill that profits shifted from communities and just arriving sometime this year. Many pockets of muck are still in the parliament building. And it's good to have the paradise when it was like I mean we have never had a case here.
for me it's just a matter not wanting to rely on something that might not be there someday, same reason i won't ever get married again :)
i also don't see why you can't roll slow in no-gi so i just don't see a good reason for training gi unless your school requires it or you simply prefer to be cooked in pajamas while rolling.
If you want to train self defense roll in street clothes. I find that clothes and boots are quite different than a Gi. Besides,this is the 10th Planet forum,what did you expect,massive Gi support?
