Paintbrush Wristlock from Closed Guard
The Paintbrush Wristlock from closed guard utilizes a reverse Kimura grip to set up a unique and effective submission. Here’s how to execute it:
-
Grip Setup: Start by securing your opponent's wrist with the same-side hand. Instead of pulling directly against their strength, reinforce this grip by grabbing your own wrist with your other hand. This double grip significantly increases your control and leverage.
-
Initiating the Move: Use your legs to pull your opponent closer, ensuring that their arm and body are tight against yours. This proximity is crucial for the wristlock to work effectively.
-
Transition to Paintbrush Motion: As your opponent resists the initial wristlock attempt by keeping their grip tight, you’ll transition into the paintbrush technique. This involves "painting" or sweeping their wrist across your thigh, manipulating the wrist to an extended position.
-
Executing the Wristlock: With their wrist extended over your thigh, you then reverse the direction, “painting” it back while maintaining tight control. This motion bends their wrist into a vulnerable position against your thigh.
-
Securing the Submission: As you finalize the position of their wrist with your leg, apply pressure by closing the gap between your thigh and your torso. This action compresses their wrist between your body and your thigh, effectively applying the wristlock.
-
Finishing Details: Ensure that your movements are smooth and controlled to maintain constant pressure and leverage. The paintbrush wristlock should be executed with precision to prevent escape and to maximize the effectiveness of the submission.
This technique is particularly effective because it leverages the opponent’s natural reactions against them, using their resistance to enhance the wristlock. Moreover, even if the submission attempt fails, the position and control you maintain allow you to transition to other attacks, keeping your opponent on the defensive.
