βοΈ Step 2: Measure Your Weight
Weigh yourself barefoot.
Shoyoroll uses height + weight pairs to determine your base size.
π Step 3: Measure Your Wingspan
This helps determine whether you need Long (L) or Short (S) gi variants.
How to measure:
-
Stretch arms sideways (T-pose).

Measure fingertip to fingertip.
If wingspan > height: consider βLβ variants
If wingspan < height: standard or βSβ
