The Effect of the Heel Hook on the Knee

The reap is where you throw your leg in from outside to inside the opponent's crotch. It puts a lot of lateral pressure on their knee, which can really fuck them up. In Sambo, everyone does their straight ankles or kiddies locks with the reap - but it makes a completely different lock and more dangerous. There was a high-profile Z-lock the other day, I'm trying to remember who it was. Look up Z-locks, because they're money. But if you've never seen someone just get hurt in a reap, generally, go watch Cubs Wandsons Grafting Match with Jake Shields.
