They also can serve as an indicator of how to roll with a person (a one stripe or no stripe guy may not be as good as someone with 3 or 4 stripes.) Some schools require a certain number of stripes on a white belt in order to even roll. They give instructors a way to provide their students with tangible sort of feedback. One stripe is much further from the next belt than four stripes. Stripes are an indication of a person’s progression through their belt rank. Let’s take a look at why stripes exist, what their potential value is, and what their potential drawbacks are. Like belts, stripes can be relatively arbitrary, however stripes have an even deeper level arbitrariness (yes, that’s a word) as they do not have any bearing on competition. This is done by putting a little tape “stripe” on the bar of the belt of the person being promoted. Many academies have a system in place by which they promote between promotions.
