There is so much more to wristlock and manipulation than the very superficial cowhwnd and gooseneck. Aikido and Chinese qinna have far more developed wristlocks than we see in bjj - The truly interesting locks start to happen when you incorporate twisting locks like sankyo aka kote hinari (inward wrist turn) and kote gaeshi (outward wrist turn). There is also what is called nikyo which is a bit more complex- using 2 opposing locks or bends to set the lock. These locks not only effect the wrist but the entire arm and have a very wide range of applications The sankyo lock can even enhance what we call the kimura in bjj. And the sankyo or potentially kotegaeshi can even enhance the arm bar since we are effectively twisting and removing all of the slack out of the arm- immobilizing the whole arm and body structure. Also if you apply a twisting sankyo or kotegaeshi then they may enhance what we call the gooseneck and cowhand breaks too. There is a wide range of applications for "wristlocks"
What a wonderful class.
Really love the culture that Joshua creates with in Jiujitsu. When you're having fun the learning comes easy. Great stuff as usual.
Thank you for the kind words!
This is poetry.
