Situation |
You are in a normal stance (facing 12:00H) with your left arm at your side (toward 6:00H), while the opponent (at 12:00H) (facing 6:00H) applies a right handshake to your right hand. |
1a) |
Raise your left hand (toward 12:00V) grabbing the opponent's right wrist, palm forward (toward 12:00H) and fingers upward (toward 12:00V), while simultaneously stepping forward (toward 12:00H) into a left neutral bow (facing 12:00H). |
1b) |
While maintaining the grab to the opponent's right wrist, immediately, raise you left elbow (toward 12:00V), inner elbow downward (toward 6:00V), to the bottom side of the opponent's right elbow, until pressure is applied upward (toward 12:00V) to the opponent's right elbow (minor). |
Note |
The raise of your left elbow is done using your left hand as the pivot point, and should resemble the execution of a flapping elbow strike. |
1c) |
Simultaneous with the above motion, apply a forward (toward 12:00H) and upward (toward 10:30V) pressure to the opponent's right wrist (minor). |
Note |
The above movements should create both a right upward elbow lock (toward 12:00V) and a right upward wrist lock (toward 12:00V) to the opponent's right arm / wrist.
The opponent's hand should be kept vertical (on a 12:00V-6:00V line), so pressure is exerted against the opponent's right wrist joint. |
Result |
The opponent should be forced onto their "tippy toes" (control height zone) in an effort to relieve pressure against the right arm / wrist joints, thus eliminating any effective retaliation with their left hand (control width zone) and/or legs (control depth zone). |
2a) |
Reposition your right wrist grab to a the opponent' right hand by sliding your left thumb upward (toward 12:00V) onto the middle of the back of the opponent's hand, while simultaneously stepping backward with you left foot (toward 6:00H) into a right neutral bow (facing 12:00H). |
2b) |
Timed with the above motions, rotate the opponent's right hand counter-clockwise (toward 10:30V) with the application of pressure with your left thumb (toward 12:00H). |
Note |
The above motion should seamlessly convert the upward wrist lock into a outward/forward wrist lock against the opponent's right wrist with minimal time between locks. |
2c) |
Timed with the above motions, settle (toward 6:00V) into your right neutral bow (facing 12:00H) with the downward, diagonal (toward 7:30V) (toward 6:00H) jerk of the opponent's right hand to your left hip area, while simultaneously releasing the handshake to the opponent's right hand; delivering a right, thrusting, outward back-knuckle (toward 12:00H) to the opponent's right temple area (minor). |
Note |
The above series of moves should be timed and executed to create a single, fluid movement. |
Result |
The opponent's upper body should be force forward (toward 6:00H) and downward (toward 7:30V), bending at the waist, but stopped by the outward back-knuckle (opposing forces). |
3) |
Slide you left foot to your right (toward 4:30H) into a right neutral bow (facing 10:30H) with a right inward (toward 7:30H), diagonally, downward (toward 7:30V) elbow strike to the opponent's left temple area (major), while simultaneously applying more locking pressure (toward 9:00V) (toward 10:30H) to the opponent's right wrist. |
Optional |
Place the opponent's right hand against your left hip area and use the rotation of your body (counter-clockwise H) to apply pressure (and create more control) to the opponent's wrist (third hand). |
Result |
The opponent should collapse to the ground (toward 6:00V), face up (toward 12:00V). |
4) |
Release the grab and pressure to the opponent’s right hand, to cross out and cover (toward 4:30H). |
