pittbullJudoka Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Continuing my series or favorites. What's everyone's favorite joint lock submission and why is it your favorite? I honestly have two favorites. First is the kimura my reasoning is that I can get the grip from the bottom and use it to first sweep and then submit. Or I can get it standing and use it to throw then submit. I find this to be one of the easiest grips for me to get. Second is the arm bar. You can hit it from the top, bottom, side and so on. Also you can transition into from the kimura grip. So lets hear it on this one guys.

So lets hear it on this one guys.Mine are the same. I like the Kimura...no...I love the Kimura. I seem to hit it from anywhere. The armbar is a beautiful flow from the kimura gripset, so I love that too. Close second, however, is the cross choke. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."
pittbullJudoka Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 I'm glad I'm not the only one that likes that series. Well discuss chokes in later post.
tallgeese Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I'm an arm bar guy as far as the top spot goes. It's one of those subs that so often gets the "basic" label but become so technical at higher levels of work with such infinite variations and subtle points that it's just amazing.Number two goes to, yup.....the kimura. For it's versatility. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww
bushido_man96 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I don't know many so far, but the one I've been liking the most so far has been the Kimura. We've done it sitting and standing now, and the standing variation was really nice. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
Wastelander Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Armbars are most definitely my favorite joint lock--standard juji-gatame from the ground, but also several variations from standing.

sensei8 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Anything with the arm and/or anything involving the leg/foot. But, I'm truly in love with any joint manipulation because, for me, they don't require a lot of set up and the like. **Proof is on the floor!!!
ShoriKid Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 PittbullJudoka will have to give the armbar variant that I like. Straight bar with the forearm pinned over the shoulder. As a second one, wrist compression like the goose neck hold we use as our escort walk. I am terrible with Japanese terminology for locks and throws most of the time. Can't you tell?

pittbullJudoka Posted June 6, 2013 Author Posted June 6, 2013 Shorikid is referring to to the arm crush arm bar.
Nidan Melbourne Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Mine are thr standard figure 4 arm bar, kimura, or the arm bar from mount
