Here is solid proof that the Gi is better...
No-Gi versus Gi grappling:

Saying the Gi is better is laughable. From wrestling and Jiu Jitsu I have 10 years of grappling experience, have done some Amateur mma fights and I have ended up in a couple fights in my life. Nothing to brag about but I consider myself knowledgeable, Gi is for those who are interested in playing a game, No Gi is for self defense. No article of clothing is as durable as a double threaded Gi. You can't collar choke someone wearing a t-shirt or a sweat shirt without tearing it. Trying to a otherwise is a joke, and an indicator of lack of real world experience. I would also wonder why one is one the 10th planet forums if they tout the Gi as supreme....
No shorts either!
So with 10 years experience the GI has helped you nothing?
See, I was guessing that your grip is wicked strong from training in the GI for 10 years and perhaps even your technique is better from training in the GI where everything is about 1/4 of the speed of NOGI.
I personally enjoy training NOGI the most, but I think not using the GI will do nothing but hurt your overall bjj game.
But your GI on even when punching the bag, will make you stronger and faster when the GI is off
talking about gi vs nogi is like saying judo is better then wrestling (ala Mr. Bravo), different sports guys.
and i don't know about you guys, but if a rapist attacks me (with his jean jacket), i'll be grabbing the head and getting under hooks getting him in my rubber guard, double bagging, getting the zombie, clearing the neck and choking him with my smelly ass foot, not grabbing the collar and pulling them down and trying to choke him with his collar.
but what do i know, i'm just a white belt, i'm sure the brown belts will rip apart my arguement since they've learned with the gi for the past 15 years...what are they suppose to say?
but one thing about the gi, it looks pretty cool.
