Rolling in uniform is difficult, and I think it’s a good thing to experience at least a few times in training. The vest and belt greatly reduce torso flexion, and the soles of your boots get caught on loose clothing. Retentions for various tools also get inadvertently released (taser, mag pouches, radio) and belt keepers are absolutely necessary. The challenge is accessibility of tools has to be balanced with being able to retain them. I like to keep the back of my belt clear because having stuff positioned on your back hurts a lot if you get stuck underneath someone. I’m very grateful to have coworker like Jonathan to show what is possible and what I need to work on. 🥋🤙🏽 **Always safety check to remove live weapons and to make sure nothing sharp will cut the mats** #bellevue #police #selfdefense #jiujitsu #trainweeklyorfightweakly #protectbellevuedotcom
