If you have a long arm, what to do vs a short arm side pressure guy? My wrist has to come down in order to meet the webbing and my elbow cannot get further back...
Great question. You have a lot of advantages with a longer lever but you need to have the strength to do the moves. Look at Vitaly Laletin for example, he's 6'8 and has one of the longest arms in arm wrestling. His bread and butter is pronation through his wrist with a low hand top roll. You can also get height on your opponent by posting into a posting top roll. Maybe I'll make a video on this with a tall guy for demonstration
Thanks for the coaching!
My pleasure, you have a lot of untapped potential!
