Some of the main differences of freestyle and folkstyle is that in free you score points every time your opponents shoulders break the nighty degree plane. instead of a ref counting to 2 or 5 every time your opponents shoulderd break that plane its two or more. You are awarded more points based on how high you can throw your oppontents. Also if at any point your opponents shoulders touch at the same time for even an instant that is consider what is known as a "touch pin" and the match is over. A tech fall is 10 points instead of 15. There is a lot more to it than that but it just gives you an idea. Also you do lock hands when you are on top in freestyle. Anyway if you want more information just reply to this and I will call you and give you some more info.
