    Hidden hook sounds and looks like giving your opponent the best possible leverage to simply press you into the pad. It looks like a kings move but without the benefit of the bone lock or the fight for hand control that comes with pronation.

    to me that hidden hook looks a lot to what devon has been doing lately with his right hand, no shoulder commitment, like an open hook/toproll, locking that wrist flexion but neutralizing the opponent with the pronator.

      Omg, he could just piss in your mouth and you would be happy. That is not high hook. High hook means hooking high that’s where the name comes from vs low hook, it’s completely different technique compared to what he is describing. Check how Zoloev pulled in 90kg last WAF worlds and you will see what high hook means. And this hidden hook is complete garbage, try to row with your back when you are on your biceps, insta pin if your opponent is at least as strong as you are.

    I thought that what devon was doing in the high hook was Moving forward, supinating hard and searching for the height and then using rotation to pin instead of pure side.
    He started doing the hidden hook approaching his king's move. Would be happy if you can clear that! 😄

    • @ryanbluebowen
      @ryanbluebowen  3 роки тому +2

      Supination and height leads to a can opener. Certainly part of a high hook. Winning shoulder line, inside someone's cup, while maintaining pronation is the key.

  • @darkdevil6508
    @darkdevil6508 3 роки тому +2

    I thought high hook is a rising hook ( preferably deep and protected pronation ) targeting the wrist and hand/fingers of your opponent with your cup strength where your backpressure and lat ( moving your elbow up and down on the pad when needed based on situation or context ) is the second most important element supporting your arm executing this technique followed by a constant passive side pressure throughout the whole time.

    • @ryanbluebowen
      @ryanbluebowen  3 роки тому

      It's a hook, because you never attack their fingers....you constantly attack their pronation.

      @@ryanbluebowen Yeah , i wont debate on this manner as i am not experienced or knowledgeable enough to name/describe what techniques do exactly. But in my personal opinion and limited experience/knowledge that is what i feel a high hook is. The way i described high hook from my point of view is my strongest move on the table atm and i feel it whole heartedly as a rising hook meant to compromise and bleed the opponents overall hand fingers and wrist while constantly try to stay as tight as possible. I m sure i have a high chance of being wrong in calling this a high hook but that s how i feel it at the table. Basically using your rising cup and passive pronation to attack opponents overall hand.

    • @pihermoso11
      @pihermoso11 3 роки тому

      to me the hook evolves into 2 attack positions
      hook + bicep ,what you see in 0:49
      hook + tricep (shoulder press) ,what you see in 8:45
      taras ivakins' technique is quite a hybrid.. it is like a hook that evolves into a toproll
      but let me explain some things that are not overseen by most people regarding taras ivakins style..
      taras attacks you at the start, and its almost a combination of a hook/bicep attack and a toproll
      but let me explain it to you in a martial art way, because most people would only notice the arm strength in armwrestling..
      when you fight taras, you are fighting the entirety of his body.. not just his arm, at the start he tries to stiffen his entire body making it act like a lever, then he rolls to his side with his entire stiff body behind it, and to make this move more effective i think he has his left foot lifted off the ground (armwrestling rules dictate one feet should always be on the ground so its perfectly legal to lift or push the table with your other leg/feet)..
      so this is the summary of taras' technique:
      stiffen the entire body including the left side making it act like one solid stick
      attack with a hook/toproll
      rotate the entire stiff body to its side
      lift the left foot off the ground so body comes down with additional help of gravity

    That’s not a high hook, your arm is too low, your arm should be posting high while cupped and using back pressure. Not sure why you’re pronating, it’s a high hook, shouldn’t be any pronation. It’s cup + post + back pressure and bone line

    You are describing a sequence of moves. You never defined a high hook, how to a hit into a high hook, didn’t really talk about strengths you need for a high hook. Plus, you said the high hook is good for facing a stronger opponent. Everyone else I have heard weighing in on the subject says the high hook is only gonna work when you are the stronger opponent.
