Wristlocks (known as mao de vaca in Portuguese) are some of the lesser used submissions in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. In this instructional, Gracie Barra black belt, IBJJF commentator, and active competitor - Budo Jake, teaches the intricacies of this often overlooked submission. Jake shows not only how to do the wrist locks, but more importantly - when. There are specific times when wrist locks can effectively be executed.
Wrist locks are an extremely valuable asset that everyone should invest time in learning. Whether to finish, distract, or aid in securing a secondary finish hold, they will boost your submission game. I can’t wait to see what Budo Jake has up his sleeve, or not :) to benefit from! - Shawn Williams
