20 Leg Locks, 4 Positions | The Updated 10th Planet Leg Lock Flow

From 10th Planet Colorado Springs

September 22, 2026

20 submissions. Four core positions. One continuous leg lock system.

Coach Michael returns with an updated version of his 10th Planet leg lock flow, connecting straight outside ashi, butterfly variations, inside positioning, the Honey Hole, the Reaper, and Double Outside Ashi (DOA).

Rather than treating every leg lock as an isolated technique, this lesson shows how to transition between positions and maintain attacking opportunities as the opponent reacts.

The leg lock flow:

  • Straight outside ashi
  • Outside ashi to butterfly
  • Passing to inside positioning and butterfly
  • Returning to outside ashi
  • Transitioning into the Honey Hole
  • Moving into the Reaper
  • Entering DOA
  • Heel hooks and ankle locks throughout the system
  • Clover leaf
  • Mussolini lock

This updated lesson revisits Coach's earlier leg lock instructional with a fresh demonstration of the flow and its submission options.

Whether you're developing your first leg lock system or refining your transitions, the goal is to understand how the positions connect so you can keep attacking when your first finish is defended.

⚠️ Leg locks can cause serious injuries. Practice with qualified instruction, apply submissions with control, and respect your training partner's tap. Always check the rules for your competition and division.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
