SBGi Denmark wins again
In the Openmat 8 turnament yesterday, SBGi Denmark / CSA CPH once again took home some medals. This is the biggest and oldest submission wrestling turnament in Denmark, so there is some prestige in winning this one.
-88 kg
Thomas la Cour 1st place
Carsten Ettrup 2nd place
-77 kg
Kari Gunnarsson 2nd place
Claus Vistesen 4th place
Thomas demolished everyone as usual, submitting people so fast that we didn't even turned on the video camera before the fight was over. Basic zhoozhits as usual - armdrags and RNC.
Carsten - the co-owner of my gym - was the only guy who did not get submitted by Thomas as they met in a super tough fight in the final, where they both gave it everything. On his way he beat a long line of tough guys to get there!
Kári made it to the final by beating everyone by pimpmoves. I had promised him a beer for every one-step guardpass he did and all I can say is that it was an expensive evening for me when we went to the bar after the turnament!
We had a ton of beginners in the turnament who all did very, very well. It was so cool to see!
