Lachlan Giles Breakdown: Mikey Musumeci's Straight Achilles Lock

[@kitman]

Not only great instructional but also very good filming quality!

[@SS-xm7di]

Agreed. Nothing out of focus, nothing overly zoomed in, different relevant angles. Looks totally professional. I wish everyone did it this well. Perfectly clear explanations as always. High quality work.

[@TheSimsBurglar]

He's the best

[@ResenhaBJJ]

Nasty ankle lock! Love the Lachlan/Mikey combo, two of the best competitors/instructors breaking down Jiu Jitsu for audiences is only going to elevate the sport and practice. Love this combo! I hope Lachlan will be able to travel to the USA soon and compete at WNO.

[@cc3loki]

Great instructional! Thank you for the content.

[@kadoosh]

Very high quality video! Perfect sound, light, camera angles and of course the jiujitsu. I also like that you're explaining the mechanics from your PhD perspective.

Awesome breakdown Lachie!

[@SauceMario]

These ankle attack principles are what I was taught several years ago when I first started learning leg attacks.

[@franciscod4826]

i learned this and more from old catch wrestling stuff

[@styvensbelloge1703]

That's how Reilly Bodicomb finish ankle locks. It is like a toe hold

[@JamesBond662]

Reilly Bodycomb actually teaches the ankle lock in this manner. He's such an underrated leg locker/instructor and his instructional is highly beneficial, if you're looking to get into leg locks.

[@Damian-dv6qx]

Reilly doesn't get enough credit. Also, his grip is different from the grip Mikey used here.

[@Boomstck]

@@Damian-dv6qx I agree, he was showing great stuff many years ago...probably before Danaher/Cummings/Ryan/Jones etc.

[@ethanbirch7033]

I think Junny was limping after that if I remember the match correctly. It was a deadly submission that anyone would have tapped to, and if they hadnt rolled out of bounds it would have ended the match for sure.

Nice Lachlan, thank you!

[@Okamy1993]

very interesting, thx!!

[@DC1BC1]

The one dislike is vinny mag cuz leg locks dont work

[@lh8091]

Would this be illegal in IBJJF ruleset (for below brown and black belt)?

[@jasongauci634]

I’d say yes because we can’t reap but im sure someone will answer us

[@theillo4739]

Does that version of Straight Achilles Lock is legal on Blue belt lvl ? Anyone know ? :D

[@TheSpasticShow]

Is pulling the knee inward IBJJF legal below brown belt? (Before the reap)

[@HerbsOTW]

Illegal with the reap for brown belt and up in Nogi. In Gi or for anyone below brown belt you aren't allowed to force the opponent to go that way, but if they do it themselves you can follow (without the reap). Hard for a ref to distinguish the difference between the two, so it's a risk

[@LIONTAMER3D]

@@HerbsOTW reaps are legal in ibjjf black & brown

Connor Mcgregor has left the group chat

[@DC-sr7gu]

lachlan i cant believe you use a dell

[@massivojohnson]

Almost like an Estima Lock on the ankle

[@LIONTAMER3D]

That footlock belongs to Cairo Terra -.-

[@whittazhau]

The C Terra ankle lock has the leg going from the inside to the outside. This is using the reap.

[@LIONTAMER3D]

@@whittazhau they're both his lol

[@fgsf9]

Match looks ass if they stuck playing footsie's..... Thousand submissions sad to see everyone jumping into guard or leg locks so cheap like spammers😭💯☯️
