Love this! Wrestling swag was SO important to me and my team mates. We could always tell who was a dog or a scrub 😂. If a kid had a chin cup he was nasty. If he had tape on his headgear or fingers you were prolly gonna get pinned. But what was most important to me was how they approached the handshake. If they do a light jog up to the line or God forbid a Daton Fix somersault jump, you know you're in for a battle.
Aaron brooks wore ankle socks in his NCAA final this last year. He still dominated lol. If you’re wearing ankle socks you’re either terrible, or really really good.
I feel like there should be a whole video on gauging a wrestler by his parents and even siblings. You can definitely tell who comes from a wrestling or combat sports family and who doesn't and that to me says A LOT ahead of a match.
Back in the day our 2 time CA state champ at 152 wore a dorky Spiderman hat when he was off the mat. He got away with it because he wrecked everyone in a state with a single division state tournament.
Ashton is the man, had the pleasure of having him in the north east of England last year absolute stud! Remind him he trained in the middle of winter BARE FOOTED 😂 and still wrecked my guys!
Kid with a mullet, OG exeos, pacing before match listening to music and if they have a fargo singlet (knew where to get them on black market). Kid is gonna be a stud
When I was coming up the intimidating T-shirt for my area in the PacNW was J Robinson trained, not sure if he is still running camps but back in the late 90s that was a tough camp and the kids from that camp were grinders
The first time I got my ass kicked BAD was against a state placer at an off season tourney right after my first year wrestling. As we were warming up before our match, this dude is slapping himself and screaming “Let’s get ready to wrestle!!”. Then he came up to me, stared me right in the eyes and yelled “Are YOU ready to wrestle??!!!” while grabbing me by the shoulders and shaking me. Needless to say this didn’t end well for me 😂 and that’s how I knew he was really, really good.
We had a first year kid wear a cup in his singlet. It was JV match . He told our coach his Mom wouldn’t let him wrestle if he didn’t wear it. Pretty sure he quit

No warm up = fish or state champ. No in between.
I sometimes shake their hand and if it’s a weak grip then I’ll have an idea of the strength
@@benbenifits4194 yes forreal!

wrestling drip is so important! good video!
Shane Griffith had shorts on with his singlet on and he's a natty champ. Aj Ferrari Michael Kemmer and others d1 had Dubble kneepads and are good.
Yes ! That’s the whole point at the end we said it really doesn’t matter
we would wear polos on friday practices with singlets. never thought to warm up in one tho for a match haha
@@mattrusso4617 I see it all the time internationally, all the big dogs in world wrestling do i
Forgot to mention shirts such as the I ❤ milf one since those wrestlers are either the top in the state or wanna look cool.
Thank you for making this video had no idea
Glad to help!!
the people with matflexes usually do some crazy moves on me
It’s crazy right!

That’s epic
I really hate when wrestlers compression shorts are longer than their singlets. Makes you look like a scrub
Hahah true
💯
When’s the ONEV show releasing? I need it for state!
Stay tuned! Early this year
Inside out crewneck with the cut off sweatpants
Insane
tornado is tough u can hear everything compared to the ck
For real i won ms state in tornado cuz I can actually hear my coach 😂 even though ms doesn’t matter it’s kinda funny
@@KadenDresselwhat state
@@sam_nelson Tennessee
@@KadenDressel sick
Pro power was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@stormsonestoppokemonshop6206 only real ones know
Single legs sleeve is the best drip u can have
I got my first tattoo at 16 yo, state placer, never a state champ I'm sure it was a bit intimidating to my opponents but I don't know never asked.
Wrestling in a school's t-shirt and shorts. They are either the best in the state like (controversial) O'Toole, or they are absolutely terrible.
Solid option!
for shoes you know a kid is not very good if he has rudis unless they’re the ones that look like ex eos
Double knee pads is a NO GO, but there are some killers out there rocking the double knee
Combat speeds made in Germany or Original Gables👍
Amazing
Is it a penalty for my son to wear headgear with his name painted on the side?
No
This is crazy seeing coach ash on my feed
He says what’s up
I won state with a turtle shell
Wish somebody had given the dude I was against the advice about "Bo" .. after a match with him I almost threw up. 🤢
Hahaha gotta do your homework!
I've seen some good wrestlers wear double knee pads some state Champion
Won’t ever catch me in a pair of hvc’s
NEVER 🙅🏻♂️❌
Mat flex’s with WHITE laces is a dog 100% of the time
I just googled it cant find it, do you mean when they replace the laces?
What abt the the coach not saying anything
Socks high, singlet high
God bless everyone Jesus loves you all
Tattoos are just mad cringe to see, 95% of them look absolutely terrible and already have faded line work
Haha valid
Making me insecure 😭😂
I have a corny tattoo
Wearing a singlet of a country you dont live in is pretty lame
Honestly this is the coolest one! more culture! one planet , one people, children of God ❤️🙏☦️
