Originally posted by JaredExtremeI have not seen it done, but think about it. It's legal to hold someone's belt, use your own gi to choke, use THEIR gi to choke them, so I do not see why it WOULDN'T be legal.
I did think about it - Using a belt for a throw or to gain position or using the Gi to choke or throw is part of technique. Pulling a Gi oversomone head is not a proper way to show understanding of techinigue it is a gimmick - why not bring pepper spray (which I am sure is not defined specifically as illegal) -spray your opponent -he's blind now so do something and win. Since Smokey stated"legal" and implies this would be a tournament - a grappling tournament it would not be looked at to favorably. Infact, it should also put you in trouble but if somone lets that would be rediculus.

Smokey - if this happened while you were rolling in class that's diffeent they guy was probably goofing with you. But grappling you don't need sight every second just sensitivity. He reaches to pull your gi lock him up
