Tony Cecchine's American Catch Wrestling: Standing Double Wrist Lock (Kimura)

A demonstration of catch wrestling's foundational move, the double wrist lock. Also known as a kimura, the standing double wrist lock in catch wrestling is far more than merely a shoulder attack. In fact, the shoulder attack is only the second stage of this compound attack, which begins with a forearm break. The key to the move is the initial "twist," obtained when the hold is properly gripped up. Coupled with that is the way body weight is used both to move the opponent, get him off balance, and apply the force needed to break that bone. The shoulder attack -- stage 2, if you will -- involves taking the arm away from the back, not UP the back in a hammer lock. A graphic demonstration of the ferocity of the double wrist lock as it's used in American catch wrestling as compared to how its used in both pro wrestling-influenced catch and jiu jitsu. Clip from the new 12-DVD sequel to The Lost Art of Hooking, Snap, No Tap! Produced by Paladin Press.

@phattybmc Well, thing is, double wrist lock has been known long before Kimura was born, but its origins are in Judo. The term "Kimura" is used in BJJ for reverse ude-garami, because Kimura Masahiko used it to submit Hélio Gracie in their famous fight.

@nHautamaki the point in catch wrestling si that even if its not initially successful the attemped ends up serving a a distraction, it works fairly well since each failed lock is a transition into ur next one

There's something I don't understand. You're putting your own forearm against their forearm. You stress both your and your opponent's forearm at the middle place. What's to make sure that your forearm doesn't break first?

For some reason every time i try this lock my opponent only feels wrist pain but i never get pressure on the forearm...does anybody know what im doing wrong?

your grip on his wrist differs from a kimura because in a kimura you use a monkey grip where your thumb as actually not around his wrist at all, but its over the top.
