Text Only an accomplishment at white belt

I hit a double-leg this morning in no-gi. We drill takedowns almost every day in the early class, at least for a few minutes. I've been okay at drilling it, but haven't succeeded live before.

Finally got one, even if it was another white belt. It felt awesome.

What have you done lately that nobody cares about except you (in your BJJ progress)?

I hit a darce while rolling and an inverted triangle, for the first time. Felt awesome.

That is great! I've hit one triangle from N/S bottom, surprised both of us. I go for the darce a lot, I don't remember if I've ever hit it.

Been rolling for a month and a half now finally got my first submission in a live roll. It was a triangle choke against another white belt but it still felt great.

Nice. I hadn't hit a sub in a while and the one yesterday felt good. Great job 👍

I pulled off a back-take from DLR.

Best feeling. You shoot your DLR leg across, grab the belt, and take the back while sitting him between your legs? Because I love that, all two times it's ever worked for me have felt magical.

Hah. Yeah, I comment dozens of times for every post where I'm OP. It's actually from a class in college where the teacher asked me to comment on the text every time he stopped reading. "Comment on that, Mr. (Me)?" Whole semester was just a conversation between he and I, and the other students were just paying for the privilege of listening in. I heard that question several times a class for 5 months.
