If you do, have you ever tried incorporating the 10thPJJ system into your gi game? I've used it quite a bit. For example, I've used Jail Break numerous time in gi competition against guys like Hermes Franca and Bruno Bastos. I working on putting together a series of Videos on how to incorporate the 10thPJJ system into the gi game. I feel it will open a lot of eyes. Especially for the gi only type of practitioners.
Heresy! Burn him at the stake! Haha just kidding. Lots of the 10thPJJ moves work with the Gi. Unfortunately many Gi practitioners are closed-minded and would probably scoff at your incorporation videos.... but fuck those guys, I'd watch them :)
The school I train at trains in the Gi most of the time, and I've found that most of the rubber guard system works pretty well whether you have the gi on or not. I use the rubber guard to set up omaplata's and armbars, and use crackhead control for armbars. I also use the twister side control on a regular basis, although I use it mainly because it is an easy position to mount from and don't go for the twister very often since it has been outlawed in nearly all competitions.
I train both and I like it
I train only in the gi and have been using it pretty effectively. I love using rubber guard for omoplatas and to set up triangles.

I roll with the gi on Tue and Thur mornings. Only have one person that I practice with, though.
LOL! I agree! Screw 'em! Thanks.Quote:

While I'm in college, I'm in the judo club (and soon joining the BJJ club). Even when I do ground work in Judo, I pull rubber guard. Easy to set up arm locks and sweeps.
I train both. I started nogi (informally with friends), then moved to formally studying gi bjj regularly. I use a bunch of TPJJ stuff in the gi with decent success, and not just one position. I have found the lockdown to be more productive for stalling then sweeping, but the sweeps are still there. Pretty much everything else (at least basic paths) seems to work as well or better. I play a ton of TSC, RG, and butterfly stuff with TPJJ adaptations. also the truck and twister positions are really easy to control when someone is flailing, because their whole body is a grip.
If anyone has videos (like the one mentioned above) or advise on adapting TPJJ for the gi, or if anyone wants to roll in the Bay Area, let me know!
