She first places her bottom foot on the hip, and brings the foot that was on the hip down to hook behind the foot instead. Now she pushes with her foot on the hip, and pulls with her other foot and both her grips to finish the sweep.Add to Favorites 880 Remove From Favorites 3396 days ago
After pulling guard, Luiza's favorite option is to go for a sweep similar to the tradition tripod sweep. With the pants and sleeve grip, Luiza escapes her hips and places her foot across her opponent's hips. Her foot on the same side she is gripping the pants drops down behind her opponent's other foot, and she simultaneously kicks her heel against her opponent's heel while pushing with her other foot and pulling with both grips, allowing her to come to the top for the sweep.Add to Favorites 1298 Remove From Favorites 3428 days ago
