open to wrist locks?

[Thai Bri]

Chris, I only looked at the second one. Come on, the attacker did kind of offer his wrist on a silver plate. The defender showed how it could be done. He did NOT show how it could be applied.

Yeh i know!

I did say kind of like what i am talking about!

When i show these examples i am just showing the way the lock is applied, what direction to apply it etc.

These examples are SHITE from a combat point of view.

But this is the type of lock i am talking about .

Take a look at the

For what pressures the lock applies to where.

It is EXTREMELEY hard to explain via text so ai thought some piccies of the actual mechanics of the lock (from a wrist point of view) would help.

cheers

Your original post talked about how easy it was to get them. I'm saying that it is not easy to get on an advanced Jits player. If you commit both your hands to someones wrist, you will probably be thrown or reversed easily by a jits guy. The only times I have been able to get wrist locks was when my opponents arm was imobilized by my body or his and I could do most of the work with one hand.

Chris - I can't get the link to work. I'll take your word for it, but will refrain from their practice myself.

I did actually throw a guy with the Wrist throw whatever it is called (can't remember now). The one where, for example, you take his right hand, with his palm pointing at him and his fingers up. Pull the wrist towards your own belly, twist it towards your left, as you turn in a counter clock-wise direction. He flew through the air like a turd on an aeroplane, and everyone looked dead impressed.

I tried it again on a different guy, years later, as I was locking him up. Nothing happened and everyone laughed. So, get this, I let him go. He'd only been a minor pain in the arse anway.

I find that on the ground using the principles of motion behind wristlocks(locking without security) can be sone one handed to escape a grab or to create air space to change position/go for a solid lock. One time I had someone all curled up after I rolled him over me. I got a sankyo while laying face domn beside him with his arm under me. Only wrist lock ever on the ground and it is really a compound lock.

I think wristlocks are really best applied while standing in response to a grab or better yet in conjunction with a trap or elbow strike. They should be as stated earlier, snapped into effect rather than an applied constant force. There are ways to maintain a wristlock after you have droped someone with them, but most JJ practitioners from all styles will know just what ur trying and are probably to fluid to get caught.

Bugger! Was a good article too!

I think your talking about Kote Gieshi. Wrist twist. Yeh this is a common wrist throw - but isnt appropriate to alot of situations.

Cool.

I found it relatively easy to catch out a Judo 2nd Dan - i was wondering about BJJ playeres. But it seems they have this covered.

Thanks for the info.
