Transitioning to the back from De La Riva guard:

  1. Begin by stripping the opponent's grip on your collar. Make a pocket grip, look up, and break their grip while posturing up.
  2. Control the opponent's pants with your left hand in the middle and your right hand on the middle of the other side.
  3. Work to remove the De La Riva hook by either pushing it down or straightening your leg and applying pressure to free your leg.
  4. Once the hook is out, prepare to pass the guard by turning your foot slightly to the side and pulling your ankle out from their grip.
  5. Start passing to the left side. If the opponent turns to defend, instead of continuing to the same side, jump to the opposite side, which they won't expect.
  6. As the opponent turns, punch your knee to the mat and use your hand on the floor to jump over their head, landing in side control.
  7. If the opponent turtles, maintain your grip on the pants and transition to the truck position.
  8. Insert your right knee in the middle and your left knee inside, pulling the opponent back using the grip on their pants.
  9. Execute the truck position details: kick their leg, bring your other leg in, and hook their shin.
  10. Once the hook is secured, adjust your position to climb up, pull your hook in, and secure the back with a seat belt grip.

This sequence allows for a dynamic transition to the back, utilizing grips and momentum to outmaneuver the opponent's defenses.
