Limp Leg Finish

Position Details

The limp leg finish counters when your opponent whizzers hard during your single leg. By kicking their captured leg free and immediately re-attacking, you complete the takedown.

Key Principles

  • When they whizzer to defend, don't fight it directly
  • Kick their leg free from your grip momentarily
  • Immediately re-attack and grab the leg before they recover
  • Finish before they can re-establish the whizzer

Concepts

  • Timing: Release and re-attack must happen in one smooth motion
  • Whizzer Counter: This specifically defeats the whizzer defense
  • Speed: The technique relies on being faster than their reaction
  • Deception: The release makes them think they've escaped
