Great break downs and explanations
Amazing level of detail
Highly recommended for anyone looking to take their understanding of footlocks to the next level
leg lock master class
Mikey is notorious for his leg locks and entries and he does a fantastic job at breaking it down in an easy and yet effective manner. I highly recommend this if you want to develop a world class leg game in the gi.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗The best straight footlock instructional
Mikey is the best with the 'botinha'. his breakdown of why the butterfly ashi is the best configuration has been an absolute game changer for me.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Best gi footlocker
Mikey and maybe Isaac Doederlein have the natiest foot locks in the gi and this instructional has been super helpful.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Phenomenal
His details are what make the difference in tapping high lvl ppl with a straight Achilles
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Favorite ankle lock video
Thank you Mikey for your in depth detail about positions and covering each position in a conceptual way. Instead of showing a move, he explains why it works conceptually. This video is a must have for lower belts wanting to learn the best ankle locks around!!!

Mikey step by step instructions are amazing
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Improved my game
leg locks never really made sense and they are treated kind of like a dark art at certain gyms. this is a great way to not only learn the basics but in-depth techniques as well.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great instructional
Great content from Mikey. He shows both valuable concepts and details that target every single footlock situation making it a complete system!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Lives Up To It's Name
This is THE instructional for learning how to use the strongest IBJJF legal ankle locking position. You can't be a complete leg locker and not have this knowledge as part of your system. Do yourself a favor and make life on the mats easier - get this instructional and make your training partners and opponents fear for their feet like never before.
Musumeci on footlocking in GI
Nice framework and gameplan for footlocking in a gi. Recommend.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Fantastic Competetor and Ok Communicator
He is extremely knowledgeable and a fantastic competetor. This instructional has a ton of great information. You will have to sift through a lot of it to get to the point and make it applicable to your game. If you want detailed explainations of breaking mechanics and the minutiae of techniques, this is great. Though I think the communication style needs some work and feels like it's missing the forest for the trees.

This is instructional is so in depth. its by far the best ankle lock instructional.
A to z
From the fundamentals of the breaking mechanic, to advanced texhniques
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Super dope system.
It’s an awesome, systematic approach. Extremely detailed but simple to apply into my game. Mikey is a solid teacher, everything he teaches here, he has used in competitions. Very highly recommended series!
Great
Great instruction system and concept for submission. Thanks
Best straight ankle lock instructional
Best straight ankle lock instructional out there. Gi player Blue belt wanting to enter the realm of leg attacks. This is exactly what I was looking for!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Best Instructional i have watched

Best modern straight ankle/achilles lock instructional available
Cutting edge instructional from one of the best in the business. You only need to look at Mikey’s record to know that he practices what he preaches. It’s nice to see a world class practitioner that actually uses the straight achilles lock at a high level against the best in the world - whereas most people seem to be hung up on the heel hook. This is an absolute game changer and for me, I’ve now a tarted using the butterfly ashi instead of the standard single leg x configuration. As others have mentioned, Mikey’s presentational style continues to improve so it’s a great watch all round. This makes a great companion piece to Dean Lister’s work.
Massively improved my straight lock
Simple concepts, so effective and easy to implement
Even more details than his last ankle lock dvd
Had the old dvd and this one made a lot things more clear. Worth it
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great
Detailed, easily implemented and highly recommended.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻5/5 star instructional
highly recommended instructional for footlocks in the gi. the way mikey breaks down technique is superb.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The ultimate ankle breaker
With the fastest submission in ibjjf tournament history, Mikey knows what he's doing. If you want to get back at those people who say they don't tap to straight ankle locks, get this.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great videos! Explination is on
Great videos! Explination is on point! Highly recommend this!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Fantastic video of how to
Fantastic video of how to do a proper leg lock and the mechanics behind it. Thank you for showing me the different variations of the submission as well as counters to the possible defences to the leg lock. Would highly recommend this video!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Daniel
Awesome instructional
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻worthy to buy
It's worthy to buy for only watching DE LA RIVA FOOTLOCK "CAIO FOOTLOCK" BREAKING MECHANICS.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great content
Great details, though watch the first two volumes in fast forward.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great technical instructional
Very technical and well explained. Learned a lot!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻death from below
this video made my leg lock game more efficient.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻great
very good
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻perfect
this is an example of how all other instructionals should lay out the material. starts with fundamentals of the position leads into all of the breaking details and variations and then describes the meta game system. i also liked how Mikey was extremely clear and enthusiastic because it kept my attention as I basically binged it
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻MK
Great Video
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻awesome!!
amazing video! Mikey is really articulate and gives you a super detailed instructional on everything having to do with footlockers.You can tell he worked super hard on this and truly cares about his work!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The best straight ankle instructional
Mikey is the greatest ever straight ankle locker and this is an extremely detailed explanation of his system. Incredible if you play any double pull especially.
Death From Below
Great job explaining both the control and breaking mechanics.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻great
great
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Best leglock instructional
Simply amazing
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The Top Straight Ankle Lock Instructional
Mikey is the best straight ankle locker in the game, probably ever. This instructional breaks down his system for achieving the lock and overcoming likely defences. His teaching style is more to the point than in previous instructionals but the content is as excellent as ever. There are breaking details that I've not seen anybody else teach, and he teaches entries which work from guard and from his other material on double guard pull (i.e. bolo/crab ride instructionals).
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻
