The Inverted Gooseneck Wrist Lock is a submission that can catch your opponent off guard and secure a quick victory. It is a highly versatile move that can be executed from various positions, including top and bottom side control, mount, or even when your opponent is attempting to escape the arm triangle.
To begin, we will demonstrate the technique from top side control position. As you establish control, make sure to maintain a strong shoulder pressure on your opponent’s face, creating discomfort and limiting their movement. This will set up the perfect opportunity to transition to the Inverted Gooseneck Wrist Lock.
From side control, you will need to secure your opponent’s arm that is closest to you. Grab their wrist with your hand, ensuring a firm grip. Next, slide your other hand under their arm, placing your palm on their forearm. This grip will allow you to control their arm and set up the wrist lock.
Now, here comes the crucial part of the technique. As you maintain pressure with your shoulder on their face, start to push their wrist towards their head while simultaneously rotating your body. This motion will leverage their wrist in an uncomfortable direction, placing intense pressure on their joint and forcing them to submit.
It is important to note that the Inverted Gooseneck Wrist Lock should be executed with caution and control. Applying sudden and excessive force can result in injury to your training partner. Therefore, always prioritize safety and communicate with your partner throughout the practice.
