Dam! With all these dumb ass rules. I think some other promoter should start a better run nogi Worlds! I would hate to have to spend all that money to just get DQed for something small. But it is the Worlds!

If you reap the knee it's a DQ, if you don't reap the knee you are ok.Quote:

I would advise against using it at all.. I think Eisner was dq'd for using it for sweeping..
Last year they disqualified many people for using it. I believe they even disqualified a few people at the black belt level.
Thanks for the heads up. Are you guys wearing the 10th planet shorts or did you order shorts elsewhere? I ordered a rashguard but assume our black board shorts with the ranked patch are okay.
brent how did u get a purple rashguard of 10th planet?

I'll be representing 10th planet at the brown belt division.
Registration complete.
We had 4 or 5 guys at the ADCC trials this year.
I learned a lot since then. At the World's we'll be the deepest ever for an event of this caliber!

@ Rick , what weight ?
@ Robert, I orderd a long sleeve nogi since that is all that was available. I'm hoping the 10th planet purple ranked shorts are okay to wear, but brining some nogi shorts just in case.
John. Hey man. I'll be feather but I'm gonna jump in the 18-30 division.Quote:

Steve from Melee is making colored rash guards for the NoGi Worlds, should be done in a week.
The black 10th Planet shorts are legal :)

FYI, that's only regarding team points. Any # of the same team can join a weight division but only 2 of those members points will count toward the team trophy.Quote:

Oh ish! That's what you call that game? Same chess pieces right? If it's what I'm thinking, I was hooked just watching it. But couldn't get away from the orig.Quote:
