    Notes:
    Best white belt guards for Carson:
    1. Collar Sleeve guard - Low learning curve, highly effective
    2. Spider guard - to counter double pant grip
    3. Halfguard - get stuck in here a lot, so learn it ASAP
    Best white belt submissions for Carson:
    1. Leg triangle (easy to attack from collar sleeve & spider guard)
    2. Arm Bar (if the triangle is not available)

      Yup, once you compete at a higher level, white to brown can be very very slow. It has to be that way with this generation now. You go compete blue belt worlds, almost all those guys are black belt level already. You have to sandbag in a way.@@vedu8519

      I was a white belt for 3 years. Train mostly NoGi (now it's only NoGi). We cannot promote ourselves. Blame the culture of needing to be graded in a Gi, or you can blame coaches for holding students back, didn't bug me personally I just care about skill. Don't look too deep into belts, if you care about fairness at all then this sport is the worst one you could've picked with steroids being so common even people at our local gym take them. You also get people who train 2x/day enhanced, & people who train 3x/week, in the same bracket. Don't take the sport too serious man we ain't there yet 😂

      I, too, was a white belt for 3 years. Blue belt for a little over 2 years. Currently a purple belt 💜
      I have never competed.
      My professor competed a lot in his day. Nothing is free in my gym, lol.
      So, sometimes, it is not sandbagging, but your coaches won't promote you until the belt fits nicely.

      @@derrickrobinson7269 brother if you’re not graded appropriately then you’ll have a white belt who should be a blue belt taking first in pans every year lol. I know there are some coaches who will do that to make it seem like they have the best students and to me that’s wrong. I do agree it should take some time to get that blue belt but not three years. Also if you’re doing no gi when you put on a gi that should change your performance. And after seeing someone perform with no gi for three years then out on a gi you would see that that person has some good experience.
