STRADDLED, WITH WRISTS PINNED

(WRIST LOCK) Groundfighting

With your wrists pinned close together or crossed over your head, the “snow
angel” technique does not work because you have no leverage to move your
arms.

STARTING POSITION: On your back, with the attacker straddling you and
pinning your wrists together to the floor, above your head, with his weight.

1. Move one hand so that you can trap the attacker’s wrist; it does not matter
which of his hands you trap. If the attacker is so strong that you cannot move

one hand, you can “fake” with that hand—when he pushes down on that side,
move your other hand.
