Should I focus on gi or no gi competition?
I'm a blue belt. I train only no gi. At the seminar where I received my blue I played a gi game that amazed me: collar chokes, spider g., control etc. (don't want to sound cocky). I'll be at a competition both gi and no gi. My gi w. class is: 76 (167 lb) - 86 (189 lb) kg (blue belt), my no gi is: + 76 (167 lb) kg (one div. - meaning beg, int and adv. together). I'm 83 kg (183 lbs.) . Witch do you think I should focus on? Gi or no gi? Thanks!

If you train no gi shouldn't you be concentrating on the no gi?

Whatever you do, don't say anything derogatory about Radiola's arm.

Yeah, but the problem is that in no gi, I can face a 95 kg brown belt or even worst... __________________

I do both. Do whichever you prefer - a more technical, slower style with the gi, or a more fast-paced, less technical stye without the gi.

So? The worst that can happen is you lose. A learning experience. __________________
