Wrist grabs such as in Crossing
Talon and Gripping Talon, are
not the kind of grabs you will probably experience. This is because, as a
trained martial artist, you hopefully wouldn't let someone walk right up
from the front and grab your wrist. |

Classic Crossing Talon grab
|
|
What might happen instead is that you bump into each other
and he grabs your wrist as you turn, which can then bring you into Crossing Talon. |

At this point, if you make the pin and step into the
opponent, depending on the situation, you might find yourself in danger.
(For example, his elbow, his other hand, or one of his legs might be free
to strike you.) |

If you step in to the attacker |

you might be in danger |
![JVWG_StepIn3.JPG (15714 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_StepIn3_small.JPG)
because you are in contact range. |
|
So, instead, you might want to execute a wrist lock and then
step back, changing his width, depth, and height to control him. |
|
Or, if the person tries to grab your hand, you can perform Circling
the Horizon before he gets it. |
|
Next, if the attacker comes to you from the side, grabs your
wrist, and tries to push it up your back, you can come around with your
elbow to his head. Then, if you want, you can follow that up with a check
and grab to his arm, followed by a rear kick to his midsection. |

If he side-grabs |

and pushes up, |
![JVWG_Side3.jpg (15965 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_Side3_small.jpg)
you can spin and |
![JVWG_Side4.jpg (17145 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_Side4_small.jpg)
elbow him. |

Check, grab, |

then rear kick. |

|
The above attack, you might notice, turns into the same
attack as Locked Wing. So we can
also perform that technique. |

After elbowing, |

perform |

Locked Wing. |
|
If that person makes a gesture toward you from the front and
tries to suddenly grab your arm, you can also simply parry and punch him
in the head. |
|
Finally, another of the many possible variations is that he
might grab your wrist from the front and try to lift your arm into an arm
lock. |
![JVWG_ArmLock1.jpg (19474 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_ArmLock1_small.jpg)
He can grab your wrist |
![JVWG_ArmLock2.jpg (19892 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_ArmLock2_small.jpg)
and lift your arm, |
![JVWG_ArmLock3.jpg (19777 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_ArmLock3_small.jpg)
applying this arm lock, |
![JVWG_ArmLock4.jpg (19223 bytes)](images/AI/JVWG_ArmLock4_small.jpg)
which is very painful. |
|
You can counter this by breaking his arm lock and elbowing
him in the head. |
