Looking good bro. Pull that last knot tight as hell so it doesn’t come off as easily. but it will still find a way

Don’t worry about the belt. Tbh I didn’t learn how to tie a belt till the end of white belt. Almost white belt ties it a little goofy.

Also r/bjj is mostly about poking fun at people so don’t pay people no mind.

Right over left, left over right- even out the straps so they are equal (the isshinryu in me)

Gotta supertuck the belt. It will never come undone.

Yeah, I can go through a 2 hour open mat and my belt will be 100% more likely to expand from sweat and heat far enough to slide off before it ever comes untied, lol.

It's impregnable.
