I don't think I've ever been asked more for a BJJ tutorial than I have for escaping the straight ankle lock. Clearly, there's a wide demand for this, so here it is! The straight ankle lock can be tough to finish at first, but it's also extremely tough to get out of (relative to other leg attacks). Here, we'll go over two fundamentally sound escapes that you can start using right away, and then take a look at some counters which can result in you getting the submission once you've survived the initial attack.
