Could somebody explain this to me. I have never heard of this technique, but its more likely a terminology issue then a fundamental defensive line play issue.

Coach,
Wrong arm technique means the defensive end or tackles who get a down block with fullback trying to kickout for power or counter or toss or tackle for trap midline etc.... The d-lineman will actually come inside the blocker and make the running back bounce the ball, I call it outside rip because you use the outside arm with this technique.

Coach, think of a trap or kick out block. Instead of a DL getting hit on his inside shoulder and kicked out--he should turn his body so his outside shoulder takes on the blocker(FB, pulling OL etc.). This way the DL is throwing himself into the hole in which the Off. would like to run...it makes the RB bounce to another hole and hopefully by then the defense can swarm and make the play
