Try the more subtle takedowns from Judo they seem to work better on BJJ guys. Try not to turn your back, incase they climb on and choke you out. If you are on the bottom on the ground clinch up one over one under and if you use closed guard keep it high up. If you are on top try not to let one limb get isolated.
okay well i got first in my weight class for jiu jitsu, and i got screwed over in my first match in judo, but i ended up with third for that. i faced only one kid, the rest were adults. so i feel i did pretty good. the guy that threw me for ippon should've had a wazari but the refs were generous that day i guess. i still feel i did good.
congrats, keep training...
