Return to BB Tarca. He didn't dominate as much as he usually. Let me try to pass, and he eventually swept me and kept me pinned in Half Guard. But his pressure wasn't as suffocating as usual. Meaning i could hang out and not have to move or escape. Before, pressure was so heavy and painful i had to move and open up subs for him. This time, not so much.
A few Cheap Tricks taps with Aoki Lock. Hard to see when you set it up with regular Straight Ankle Lock, it slips out and you lock in the Aoki.

Got two compliments on my newish Vital Genearl gi. Made popular by Jon Thomas. I got white, but the black is pretty sick, too.
Peeps were so dazzled, they didn't see me pass them.
Lil bro handed me down a bunch of gis, so it was awhile before i actually bought some for myself.
In order of purchase:
1. Kuai -- expensive, lightweight. Good travel gi. Too big, and peeps wrap me with my own gi and choke me. Not good. Can't get rid of strange smell.
2. Fuji - good budget buy, meaning cheap. Good quality. Once again wrong size. Too big top. Pants right size. People think i did judo bc Fuji is judo brand.
3. Flow - best fit. My favorite, the Navy. Waiting for Gray forever since it's the only color i don't own. Not cheap, but not expensive either. right in the middle
4. Vital / coveted this since seeing it on Jon Thomas YT channel. Cool design. Just a tad on big side for me. Would have gotten the Black, but i already own a bunch of Black gis.
5. Flow - finally got the Grey, just a tad big. Weird since i got the same size as the Navy, but maybe it will shrink a little. Or maybe bc it's didn't model.
