OMG , one of my uchikomi partners had a horribly stinky gi . It must have been rolled up in his car for the last few days . The first time around my reaction was just , Eww stinky . The second time around he was doing osoto gari entries and I got an unrelenting stink wave as his shoulder slammed into me repeatedly . Turning my head didn ' t help , and I couldn ' t hold my breath since I was breathing hard and he was basically doing CPR chest compressions on me . I literally dry heaved a few times . Seriously . And I was praying for the round to end . I knew I couldn ' t do newaza with this guy . The sensei was counting the rounds out , and after doing quick math , I figured out I would have one more round with him . I needed to do a technique that would maximize distance . Ashi waza , obviously . Ahha , Sasae ! I did that . Then he did it ! Sigh of relief . In his defense , he never had stink gi before and he ' s a good training partner . I just hope this was an anomaly .
