About this video

Escape from De La Riva with a pants grip and transition into a Berimbolo to take the back:

  1. Begin by freeing your leg from De La Riva by pushing down on your opponent's leg and walking to open their grip, using a C-grip to assist.
  2. Back step and trap your opponent's leg with yours, forming an X with your legs.
  3. Grab the edge of your opponent's pants on the far side, preparing for a front roll over your shoulder.
  4. Execute a front roll, trapping your opponent's leg to bring them along with you.
  5. As you roll, aim your knee towards your opponent's knee and use the pants grip to push their leg onto your hook.
  6. Insert one hook inside and place the other hook behind your opponent's thigh.
  7. Use your free leg to kick and the pants grip to push your opponent's hips under, while releasing the grip to control their arm.
  8. Adjust your position, secure a collar grip, and establish your second hook to complete taking the back.
