Add to Favorites Remove From Favorites 528 195 days ago
Gustavo uses the same off balancing technique to force opponent to base on the mat, and this time he drops to one knee and keeps his hand in reach of Gustavo, either on his pants or the mat. Gustavo makes a sleeve grip, places his foot on the inside thigh again, extends his body and throws his legs up to lock a triangle. From here he can drag the arm across and properly lock his legs to finish the triangle.

Add to Favorites 477 Remove From Favorites 197 days ago
Gustavo sets up the same guard and does his push pull to off balance his opponent to the side, and force him to post with both hands on the mat. From here Gustavo releases his collar grip to block the arm, places his inside foot on the inside of the thigh and pushes his opponent away. This creates the space he needs to bring his other leg underneath to make a X-guard hook. Now he can stand up into base, holding the leg to sweep his opponent.

Touching on a few key details and correcting some common mistakes, Gustavo shows how he uses his legs to push his opponent away when he has his knee pressuring Gustavo's legs.

Add to Favorites 558 Remove From Favorites 199 days ago
Gustavo shows a guard he began using after a knee surgery, which allowed him to play guard without too much stress on his knee. From an open guard or perhaps a De La Riva, his opponent pushes his knees and pressures with his inside leg. Gustavo reaches under the leg to grab his own shin, making a kind of modified De La Riva hook, and his other leg hooks behind the inside leg. Now using his hooks and collar grip, he can pull his opponent and get off balance, setting him up for various sweeps which he will show next.

From outside his opponent's open guard, Tyrone sits on top of his opponent's hooks, placing himself in the butterfly guard, while staying on his toes rather than his knees. He grabs the pants at the hip and places his shoulder outside the knee, so he can use it to drop his weight and smash the legs. Now he is back to the side smash position and has the same passing options as before.

Now he grabs the hand that is pushing his knee, and pulls it down. He reaches over the arm and grabs the belt, trapping the arm now. Next he moves his legs so that his foot is now blocking the far leg rather than the near foot, and his other foot plants on the mat so he can bridge and sweep his opponent.

Now depending on his opponent's reaction, he can set up different sweeps. If his opponent stays on his knees, he shoves the wrist to the body and kicks back to roll his opponent. If he steps one leg up, Eduardo comes underneath to an X guard and sweeps.
