Spar Wars 2025

Having May 4th as the anniversary date for Roll Model Grappling is an opportunity too good to pass up and hilarity always ensues. Last year I made my debut as a masked luchador. This year, unable to participate due to an injury, I compromised with the next best thing: Photos.

The rest of us were underdressed compared to these two Jedi, but the day featured a judo demonstration, matches in BJJ, kickboxing, and MMA, and a goofy round with a capture-the-flag feel in which the opponents tried to steal the other’s socks.

Feel free to contact me on the webform here or however else you know how regarding high-resolution images, and if you feel so inclined, you may consider stopping over by the tip jar and buying me a cup of coffee or three. I sure like coffee. Make sure you also check out Roll Model while you’re feeling clicky.
