What are your thoughts on this? It's something I never even thought about until I was rolling Tuesday night and I found myself in guard and using the end of my belt to wrap around the back of a guy's neck to try and break his posture. I never really got to a point where I could try to choke him with it, but it made me wonder if this is considered an acceptable tactic or if it's considered more of a dirty move. I have maybe a year's worth of BJJ training (spread out over a few years) and I've never seen belt chokes taught or even attempted. What if a guy's belt comes off during a match and you just pick it up and strangle him with it? That's an extreme example, but you get what I'm driving at. You can use the gi to choke people, and belt is part of the gi, right?

Input would be appreciated,
thanks.
 
That video was great!

I always threaten to choke people with my belt. Just playing around of course.
 
That was not staged. I trained in that club for several years. I remember the thursday before they went off to that NAGA, Ben asked if he could choke someone with his belt like a noose, everyone thought he was joking around...
 
How embarassing would it be if someone hog tied you during a tourney? Haha. You would be infamous all through youtube and the grappling world.
 
for when you are wearing your BJJ belt around the mean streets of wherever you live
 
i am hearing the ref right? did he tell the dude in the black gi that you can't choke with the belt after he let go? then it's probly illegal
