>>spend 30-40% of time on practicing takedowns and 60-70% on practicing ground game intead of 10% on takedowns and 90% on ground game
Theoretically useful for self-defense and MMA, useless for sport BJJ, that's why people train the way they do
>>start sparring on foot rather than on knees
Partly the above, partly space constraints. My gym for example is pretty small so when a full class turns up, there tends to not be enough space for standing start unless you want to throw your partner right on top of someone else
>>give -2 points for guard pulling in competitions
Agreed
>>Legalize slams for brown and black belts. And if you're scared to do it, instead ban jumping guard.
Slams are legitimately dangerous, so I wouldn't legalize them, but there needs to be some sort of a major reward for being able to lift your opponent up to a standing position. Pulling guard is gay so I agree with you there
>>legalize heel hooks for brown and black belts in gi, just like you did in no gi
Yeah, IBJJF is just extremely gay, that much it has in common with most other "governing bodies". Luckily there are better orgs out there
