Tricks and Hints To Finish The Ankle Lock

[@r.castle5096]

I am so thrilled to have found your channel. I'm currently trying to improve my ankle lock game with a Gi and encounter these problems all the time. Your videos are a ton of help, thanks Professor 🇨🇦

Thank you very much. Your videos are always awesome. I have been having trouble finishing the straight ankle lock for the reasons you mentioned. I'm looking forward to trying out these solutions. Thank you so much!!

This is good. I’ll try it with the leg extended like that. Lately I have been using outside ashi to control and then both feet on the hip/ribs to finish.

I came for the foot lock. I stayed for the knee bar. Thank you

This is fantastic! Ty!

Should we be aware of the Estima lock when placing the foot on ribs?

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

YEs! That's is why we keep our feet together, to interfere with ankle and estima locks. (-: Coach Tom Davey

Hey coach , whats your opinion on blue belts doing ankle locks and calf slicers on new white belts (1 month training) ? fair game?

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Ankle locks: fine. Calf slicers, not so much! (-: Tom Davey

[@MrJetlagfever]

@@TheGrapplingAcademy thanks, i thought the calf slicer was a bit much too - very quick sharp.

Has nobody noticed you basically showed the Mickey lock before the Mickey lock was invented!

[@carlosmartinot8963]

Is your foot on the rib cage exposed to a heel hook?

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Not not really due to placement and even if its locked, without isolating the knee via an ashi garami style control no damage is threatened. Hope that all makes sense: (-: Tom Davey
