Nice interview with Cindy Hales - really enjoyed reading this: http://m.fightland.vice.com/blog/cindy- ... er-awakens

I hear that Pete has just joined the brown belt ranks too - congratulations big man!

Thanks, man. Purple was a great belt. A long journey of achievement and injury. Best part of it was the kid starting to train and falling in love with the art. Fucking gauntlet was the worst ever. Belt awarded by my instructor but strapped on by Ralph Gracie, his teacher. An honor.

Congrats man!!

Yeah, so glad we don't have the gauntlet tradition !

So far brown belt has been my favourite belt yet. You're going to love it

This is some advanced level guard retention shit

Very long vid - you can just start at about 13 minutes and avoid the long rambling intro.

Amazing achievement well done Pete.

Thanks! It's been a journey, and starting to see, with only one belt left, that the journey will continue to travel into unexpected territory.

Can't believe he didn't mention neck cranks...

Nice clock choke details. I'm going to try this.
