I’m just getting back into BJJ after a 4 year hiatus, and am rediscovering how much I love over the back belt grips, and the take downs they can present.
What are some pros/cons to this gripping style in an environment where weapons may or may not be present? How hard is it to establish this kind of grip on a set of pants without a belt? I haven’t gotten a chance to take ECQC or a similar class, so I’m interested to know where the line is between the gripping strategies I like in a Gi and how they work in street clothes, vs the sorts of things that I use in nogi.
