Davison Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Whats everyone think about sankaku jime (triangle choke)? I can pull it off in radori, but do you think it would work in a confrontation on the street as long as it was a fight one on one? Why punch someone when their on the ground when you can just kick them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJS Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 If you end up on your back and cant sweep him then it's a great option..Triangle and arm bar are your two main weapons and i would much rather choke someonout then break their arm in most street confrontations.. The only thing I would be cautious of is getting picked up and slammed if they are alot stronger than you..although there are ways to prevent that..

Gumbi Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Can you give me a reason as to what made you think it wouldnt work? There had to be something that made you create this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKDChick Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 On your back in any streetfight is a bad place to be, but if you know the technique you can kill someone with it. Certainly being choked will distract somebody. I do doubt you would have major opportunities to use it, but if the right situation came up ... "I'm not tense; just terribly, terribly alert."

AngryMatt Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Never go to your back in a street situation if you can help it. So many bad things that can happen there. In a real fight, you're better off using the takedowns you've learned and then getting side or full mount. From there you can simply get the guy to stop or work strikes to ensure he's not getting up for quite awhile. "In the void is virtue, and no evil.

Treebranch Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Angry Matt what's the name of your school for Budo Taijutsu. We have a guy that was in wrestling and somehow found us. If you get the choke while standing take the balance to his heel and drop straight down, pinning his head with your chest. You end up behind, squat and they are pretty much screwed cause it's extremely hard to move from there. It's also pretty easy to pull off.

Davison Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 gumbi, I wasn't saying it wouldn't work, I was saying I had only used it in randori practice and had never used it on the street. As to the reason why I created the post, I'd have to say that I was just curious,thats all.
