This past weekend Jason went to Long Beach California to participate in the World Gui Jitzu tournament. This is a huge event, men and women of all ages with different levels of skill ( white belt, blue belt etc. ) from across the world come to compete. Jason competed in the Masters light weight blue belt division. He went against four guys. Then since he won Gold in that division he could compete in the open division, which means different heights and weights compete and he went against 5 guys to take gold in the open division. 2 GOLDS!!!
ble to go so when he got home we put in the video ( that's why a couple of the pics are fuzzy, their pictures of what is paused on the video :) ) Some of the matches were pretty intense. They were all 5 minutes matches and it's either by scoring points for certain moves or submission. He pretty much choked all of them out but one. Two he barely won, one with four seconds left and another since he was the more dominate one in the match the judges gave him the win. All the matches he was definitely worthy of winning. He did an awesome job. 
There was some confusion of course..there always is. Jason and one of his competitors thought that they both won. Jason had rolled his knee during one of his last matches and since he thought that he was done was icing it for about 15 minutes when they called his name to have his last match. He did very good even though his knee was stiff. He choked the guy out rather quickly!!
