im not flexible worth shit but I can grab pretty well. Flexibility helps with grabs no doubt, but it has to do a lot more with muscle memory, technique, control (which ties in to technique and memory), and some good strength (generally).

Palms can almost fully touch the floor, and I can grab my hands behind my back.

I'm 6'6 and I stretch every day to make sure my groin/legs/hips/torso are nice and limber for grabs, spins, etc...

unless you have some sort of medical disorder there is no excuse for being inflexible. just fucking stretch.

I can touch my palms fully to the ground and I don't have short legs.  I need to work myself back to being able to do the splits though.  Pretty flexible in other stretches also.
