i love these wrist locks. i had a smart arse try and steal my watch did the same move and dislocated his shoulder and i forced it more then i should to teach him a lesson
this can breack arms.. prove it. nothing to do with strenght or brutality, it works on the weack points. if you apply this or any other nikyo forms, as it has to be done technically and in a rude way.. you'll stay with your enemy's arm broken in your hand. not strenght but just right points..
@shadownoob83 Don't worry about that. He's doing that super slowly just so we can see the mechanics of it. People like him, who've been practicing Aikido for years, can do it in a flash. It builds into something like instinct. You'll find that in every good tutorial, or else no one's going to be able to see how it's done.
haha yeah if you try to fight back more or less you get your arm broken because just basic physics most that they do the moves to are well trainedin giving in to the movement so that they dont' git hurt it's a good Idea to learn to fall or to move with the flow of force so you don't get hurt. the best way to fight such a movement is with a quick Atept or to flow along with the move ment moving your hips in to the body of the controling moving the wrist in to a more nutral movement.
@nicerebound See, if you know whats comming to you and you start to resist and pull your arm away or something, with that energy you will open yourself up to many other techniques and a highly experienced aikidoka will be able to harmonize with your movments.
Trust me.. i had the same doubts until i tried them out on my teacher ;D
@nicerebound look 🙂 you're not by far the first one to say it wont work if you resisted. first of all, Aikido in its essence is an art against UNPROVOKED attack (so no ring fighting, or drunk bar fights, fx) as if when you're walking down the street.
As to resistance part.. 🙂 it will hurt like hell if you resist. its an art of harmonizing or reversing the energy, hence the more you resist the more it will hurt.
The more energy the attacker puts into the attack, be it a strike or grab, the easier it is to do things (my experience with aikido). But if the attacker is using simple jabs, which are low energy and very quick…you have to use other techniques that may not necessarily be aikido =P
Sure the attacker kneels down for him. He kneels because he doesn't want his wrist broken. This technique hurts SO much when done properly. By taking a knee (submitting), the attacker reduces the pain. He also moves into a tactically horrible position. This technique was on my first Hapkido belt test. We finished with a knee to the head or chest. We're not as worried about hurting our attacker. Aikido is still awesome stuff. I wish I had time for both.
Like he said you step off the line of attack. In reality, you would be moving and trapping his hand at the same time. I've been on the receiving end of this techinque, and it gets dangerous on the wrist if it hasn't been stretched properly.
it is realy cool but you can't realy learn a lot from here becouse they use hakami and this is made so you can not see how his legs move . all the techniques with hands use are realy easy but the main thing is the legs if you see how they move you can learn almost anything from just watching vids like that.

My dad taught me some aikido, it involved pulling the attackers arm towards me and bending my entire body while spinning his wrist
i love these wrist locks.

I remember this from years ago when I first started, watch from 0:30 the poor uke knows just what is coming.. cringe
why would the attacker hold you wrist
you just do it before the attacker hit you using another hand.
Do attackers really just grab ur wrist then stay frozen in stone?!?
This is a good move to do on mates
I'm just wondering how much they pay the secondary guys who pretend they just could't have moved otherwise and got busted.

I love the grace in Aikido…..
@xEtiquettex Haha true! thanks for the info =)
@xEtiquettex MMMA isnt a fighting style its the use of many different techniques hence the name ''MIXED" martial arts

Then a different set of techniques is used, that's what. This is what it is: Someone grabs your wrist.
Sure the attacker kneels down for him. He kneels because he doesn't want his wrist broken. This technique hurts SO much when done properly. By taking a knee (submitting), the attacker reduces the pain. He also moves into a tactically horrible position. This technique was on my first Hapkido belt test.

If he moves, you must change the technique.
it is realy cool but you can't realy learn a lot from here becouse they use hakami and this is made so you can not see how his legs move . all the techniques with hands use are realy easy but the main thing is the legs if you see how they move you can learn almost anything from just watching vids like that.
I like this technique; it looks like it could be quite helpful in de-escalating a potentially violent confrontation.
