Sup players! So i got a new lightweight competition Gi the other day and i'm really happy with it I didn't want to spend a lot as i'm not that keen on white Gi's so i went for one of the Tuff Lightweight Gi's as the reviews are really good. This content is protected It's my birthday in a few weeks so i've asked the missus to get me a Break Point Gi as i really like the look of them :rastaI read they are really heavy :think This content is protected What you fellas rolling with? My instructor is endorsed by Koral so i may invest in one of them next year... we'll see though. Lynchburg
This one? This content is protected Any good? How is the fit and weight? Do other players find it easy to take the lapel? Lynchburg
The fit is solid and its very light weight. No guys dont have an easy time grabbing any part of my GI. Its a pretty good GI I dont really have any problems with it besides from the fact that the waist is kind of wide and no matter how you pull on the strings on tie its still a loss fit at the waist which is never a good then in Jiujitsu. That is the exact GI.
Funny you should bring up Breakpoint, I'd never heard of them until I saw this one and liked the look of it I ordered it and had a roll in it last night for the first time. It's actually really lightweight and super comfortable to roll in. The only concern I've got is that the sleeves are a little wider than I'm used to. I haven't washed it yet, so I don't know about the shrinkage factor. This content is protected I've actually got three Warrior Gi's (an Australian brand), and they're phenomenal, even if the patches look a bit gay. I've got the slightly heavier ones, because I'm not competing in them and they are comfortable as hell and they have nice long lapels to choke people with. This content is protected
Nice... I'm pretty certain i'm going to get the Break Point Gi i pictured above for my birthday... I'm 5"10 but i'm rolling in an A3 as i have big shoulders and weight around 205lbs. I'm trying to get down to 86kg's though for a competition in September :d Lynchburg
im just using a cheap ass one my friend had spare, its seen better days but i aint too fussed about something ill only wear once a week and BJJ competitions with gi is something i dont enter, the good thing about my gi is the arms only go half way down my forearms so illegal yes i know but advantage for me!!
im wearing this gameness feather gi. cant rate it highly enough. its light as ****, cheap, comfortable and takes about an hour to dry in full sun. This content is protected
Gracie Barra schools have a pretty strict uniform policy, we all have to wear GB uniforms. It's pretty much a money grab but the good thing is it puts everybody on a level playing field...no showboating expensive gi's. I have a regular GB gi and a comp gi, the pic below is the comp gi, lightweight, pretty comfy but the lapels are kind thin and flimsy but I guess that just means you have to rely on technique too defend chokes!
