why isn't there a weight below 155 for no-gi?
i'd like to come but we don't train gi at my school and i walk around at 145 on a good day!
i competed at the arnolds and there were some guys that had at least 20 pounds on me in my own weight division b/c they used the same 155 and under no-gi rule.
anybody care to answer?
DaRush,
A lot of the tournaments we have gone to end up combining weight classes in no gi because there are less competitors. We wanted to avoid that because it is harder on the competitor, so we spaced out the weights more.
However, we just added a 137lb gi weight class because of strong interest, if that interest carries over into no gi, we will add a 140 or 145 weightclass.
