OK first one looks like:
defensive parry to arm lock
to
force position change
to
grapple with a change of two handed to arm to on wrist and on hand on head
to
Grapple add leg (or knee to head) both hand to wrist
to
Disarm
second one (bit dark and we wrong side)
Defensive arm lock (now I can't decide if that's a two handed arm lock, or one handed with combo elbow strike to the inside elbow*)
to
forced posture change (maybe combo with adding a hand to the grapple is the fort move was a grapple and strike)
to
Two handed disarm (I guess, can't really see)
Third one
Same as the second, only it looks more like a arm-lock applied with pain to get the target to release the knife rather than a straight disarm.
Same question over weather that's a two handed arm lock or a one handed arm lock with elbow strike to joint combo*.
Sorry not really my area (there is second video in the link but I haven't looked at that)
*thing is since they are doing a display, strikes aren't going to be full speed/strength so the dividing line between grapple and strike blurs a bit.
And ultimately the difference between an arm lock that ends in injury to the arm, and a combo grapple and strike that ends in injury to the arm, is also blurry (in RL if not in GURPS).
Should of course say if it is grapple strike combo it not a defensive parry but more a wait and/stop hit etc, etc. And weather or not it's one handed grapple and them one handed strike, or a combo is a matter of time (but they look fast enough to be combos me)
