Need to belt choke someone... strategery?

**NoTeefa** · Posted On: 8/01/2008 5:19am

Please know that I am being completely serious in this post, and I hope that this will turn into a GOOD discussion on how to choke somebody in a really embarassing way for revenge.
That being said...
My gym is pretty damn small, in fact we are celebrating our first anniversary this weekend with a seminar from Matt Thornton. There's really only about fifteen or so guys that come in regularly for jiu-jitsu classes, so I've had the opportunity to roll with all of them on multiple occasions. One of the guys in particular like to play dirty, meaning he likes to do **** like choke you with his own gi, or sit on your face while you struggle to escape from the unbearable torture of having another guys asscrack so close to your nose. This is all in good fun of course, there's nothing vindictive or angry about it, its just a bunch of guys having fun.
but
I really need to one up this guy and submit him in a most heinous manner. I figured a belt choke would be neat, but just taking my belt off and choking him with it would be far too easy. So I thought, what if I could choke him with it while its still tied on? That would be unique, funny, and embarassing (especially if I could choke him with his face in my crotch).
What's cool is my belt is already way too long, so I'll have about a foot and a half of belt to play with. Also I could tie it kind of uneven so its like two feet long on one side.

Does anybody have any tips? tricks? ideas? Opinions on the ethics of choking somebody with your belt while you're still wearing it?

Bear in mind, I'm only a two stripe white belt so I might need to figure out a way to do it from the bottom.

Try choking him with HIS Belt.

pretty much anything you can do with a gi/lapel rope, you can do with a belt, if it's cooperating.

baseball choke from side control. easy. same setup as with a lapel rope, you just start a bit higher.

not a choke, but you can use his belt to hook his arm for a simple scissor sweep, then transition directly into armbar. get it right, and you can do it without touching his arm.

One of the guys in particular like to play dirty, meaning he likes to do **** like choke you with his own gi,

on what planet is this considered "dirty?"

edit: forgot to ask, do you care if the choke is tournament legal?

Screw belt choking.

Hog-tie his ass.

If you aren't massively better than him, then recruit someone.

Take pictures.

Why don't you try leaving your ego at the door and train, rather than worrying about one of your training partners getting the best of you.

Choking someone with your gi, belt, their own gi or belt is a valid technique. It is not dirty. Oil checking or eye-gouging are some examples of dirty tactics.

I hate those guys that use dirty techniques like armbars, chokes, leglocks or takedowns.
The ones that really get me are those dirty motherfuckers that pass guard.

GoGo from rubber guard is fun and a pretty easy set up....and if your feet stink it will be even more unpleasant. If he doesnt turn his head/neck you can stick your big toe in his nose.

the asscrack one might be dirty on a funny level... but my fucking specialty is lapel choking and lapel armbarring people.

honestly, if you're not better than the guy don't try to play with the gi. or you'll end up getting your gi pulled over your head and choked out that way.
