No Serrada's Lock N Block is more like Modern Arnis's Latigo de Baston (Largo & Corto ) Remy quit teaching it back in the late 80's because its speed complexity and footwork was tough to convey in seminars. Remys Block in lock is also very hard to teach in seminars its very aggressive and timing is a must it works or it doesn't its kind of like some of those old Japanese samurai moves, if it work you win if not you're F@^ked.

Yeah. Everyone who has old Eskrima videos, try not to procrastinate too much :) All it will take is a little freak flooding and priceless stuff could be gone forever.
