Ankle Picks
The low-risk takedown. No deep shot, no sprawl to beat. You control the head, change the angle, and take the ankle when their weight is on it.

The Cues
- Same premise: chest low, double isn't there, maybe you've side stepped a couple times.
- Backhand collar. Change levels. They match your level because that's what they're taught.
- Bring their head straight down to their chest, toward the top of their leg.
- Drop to your knee where your foot was. Go low on the heel, not the calf or the knee.
- Pull the foot out, push the head the other way, step in, take them to their back. Split the middle, bottom leg hooks, both legs.
- If they step back or switch stance, same pick on the other side. Two ankle picks out of one setup.
The Standard
A couple of times a week. Alternate with the single: same head control, different leg. If they defend one, the other is there.
