Had a car today so I made the trek to Mad Tiger, an RJJA affiliate, for open mat. Only two others showed up. Both in the Army and said they had five days experience training. They wanted to roll no gi. I'm not a no gi guy, but I drove 45mins to be there so I gave it a shot. Great guys. Strong, but composed. Not spazzy at all. We went six minute rounds with a 90 secs rest between rounds. I trained every round for an hour while the two "kids" rotated in. It was a great experience and aside from bashing my elbow against the concrete (now very swollen and bruised) I escaped the session uninjured and feeling great.
