I began learning BJJ about 4 months ago, and shared my first experience with you in this thread. http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=172861

Since then I've come a long way in skills and experience, winning my next two tournments in white belt category, both in BJJ and grappling. (the BJJ one I had only one adversary in my category, so there wasn't much merit). Anyways, for anybody who is curious, here are the ''finals'' from both. If you compare it to the video in the first blog entry, I think I've definately improved.

I'm the one wearing knee pads





and yes, I wear a judo gi

Gotta open up that guard man! You're not going to be very successful if you rely purely on your upper body. Use those hips!

Edit: Not to say that you weren't successful. Great job, and keep it up!

Oddly enough I'm at my best in the open/spider guard.

I agree with Bitter. Used your hips and maybe going for a high closed guard, or possibly switching into an open guard is definitely a good transition esp. considering your opponent in 1st video kept some good base. Definitely a good job though, keep it up.
Try hard or don't try at all.

I've been doing bjj for about two years now, I really recommend sticking with it. It's definitely my favorite sport.
We have multiple brackets generated in advance. Relax . (Kennigit) I just simply do not understand how it can be the time to play can be 22nd at 9:30 pm PST / midnight the 23rd at the same time. (GGzerg)

After your first post, wasn't there huge demand for a blog about your first BJ?

It was supposed to be met with a ban if I didn't comply. Fortunately for those who don't want to hear about a stranger's first BJ, I am still here.
