    So that's where the BJJ hate towards foot locks comes from. Or am I being presumptive here?

    I'm from the Fadda linkage. My Grand Master trained in Acadamia Fadda. I hope to bring this lineage to 10th Planet. We want to create the first 10th Planet school in Japan and help to spread open style Jiujitsu and grappling. Because we take all the best part from all styles and make them work in No Gi and Gi style. My Grand Master loves 10th planet and hopefully soon we can bring it full circle. Watch out for our JJ videos on YouTube next year.

    Nah, I think you might be onto something. I know you're not the only one thinking it. And considering that leg locks were the biggest killer in Abu Dhabi and other sub only comps, seems like leg/footlocks are still gooooood money.
