NoGi for the past 6 months or so I have not had a Gi and we have been doing straigh nogi. I think my fighters don't get as much Tech. this way. They fight putting the Gi on and it is very frustrating to me. Soon we are going to make them so we can get them competing what do you all think?
I prefer the GI. At this point I am still new and go to both classes but I like the gi much better. I think its important to know both from SD standpoint. If I had to choose one to focus on, it would be GI.

I have a gameness that I got for around $75 online and I do plan to get a HCK at some point this year.
