![darce](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/darce.png "The D'Arce choke, also known as the Brabo choke, is similar to the Anaconda choke. The difference is that the choking arm is thread under the near arm, in front of the opponent's neck, and on top of the far arm. The choke gets its name from Joe D'Arce, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Renzo Gracie. Though not the inventor of the choke, D'Arce performed this choke often and with great success in many Jiu-Jitsu and submission grappling tournaments. During a sparring session with Jason Miller, the choke surprised Miller, who gave it the name and pronunciation "Darce" rather than the proper "D-Arsee," when D'Arce did not have a title for the technique")
![escape](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/rnce.png "A escape can be from a submission or position that has the grappler in trouble but allows the grappler to "escape" the hold or lock.")
![go go plata](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/gogo.png "The gogoplata is executed from a guard, commonly from a "rubber guard", where the legs are held very high against the opponent's upper back. The fighter then slips one foot in front of the opponent's head and under his chin, locks his hands behind the opponent's head, and chokes the opponent by pressing his shin or instep against the opponent's trachea.")
![Granby roll](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/granbyroll.png "The Granby roll is a wrestling reversal named for Granby High School in Norfolk, Virginia, where it was popularized by teacher and hall of fame wrestling coach Billy Martin.
A Granby roll is performed from an inferior position, usually when the top wrestler has a hold upon the lower wrestler's waist from the side or when moving to "take the back." The bottom wrestler rises slightly and cross steps under his own body, using it to post as they kick high with the other leg and perform a shoulder roll to the inside shoulder, either achieving an escape or an arm lock on the other wrestler.")
![grapevine](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/grape.png "Is a way to hold an opponent's legs with your leg(s) it gets it's name from the "twisting limbs around limbs in a manner similar to a plant".")
![twister](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/Twister-Spinelock2_edited-1.jpg "The twister (a similar move in wrestling is known as a guillotine) is a sideways body bend and neck crank, which involves forcing the head towards the shoulder while controlling the body, hence causing lateral hyperflexion of the cervical spine. The technique involves tension in several bodyparts, and depending on the flexibility of the recipient, can also involve pain in the knees, abdominals and torso. The twister is often confused as being a spine crank since it involves a degree of lateral non-cervical spinal flexion. The main pressure is however on the cervical spine, hence making it a neck crank. It is performed from a back mount single vine ride position, where the top man has one "hook" threaded through the bottom man's legs and secured behind the ankle. The top man then pulls the bottom man's opposite arm behind his own head and grabs hold of his opponent's head, pulling it down to his shoulder. Popularized by Eddie Bravo and the 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu system. [2] On March 26, 2011 Chan Sung Jung finished Leonard Garcia at UFC Fight Night: Seattle in round 2 of their fight using a twister, the first twister finish in UFC history.")
![wrist lock](http://www.lockflow.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/75x75_thumb/category_pictures/dropping-full-shoulder-throw-8.jpg "A Wristlock is a joint lock primarily affecting the wrist-joint and possibly the radioulnar joints through rotation of the hand. A wristlock is typically applied by grabbing the opponent's hand, and bending and/or twisting it. Wristlocks are very common in martial arts such as Aikido, Hapkido and jujutsu where they are featured as self-defense techniques. They are also used as submission holds in combat sports such as Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Catch wrestling. While being illegal technique in nowadays Sambo[1] and Judo[2] competitions, it is still practiced in judo forms of self-defense kata "Kodokan Goshin Jutsu".[3] Wristlocks are also widely used by law enforcement and military as pain compliance hold.
The wristlock is a technique that can be applied from a stand-up position, simply by grabbing the opponent's hand and twisting and/or bending it in a non-natural direction. It is considered to be a relatively safe technique to practice with a willing opponent[4], but if applied suddenly and/or forcefully, a wristlock can cause ligament tears or possibly even dislocation or bone fractures")
