About this video

Passing the De La Riva (DLR) guard involves a sequence of movements to control the opponent and secure a pass to mount. Begin by controlling the opponent's neck with a low grip to use the arm and shoulder to pull the foot out. Execute a short movement by jumping back with the left side to a diagonal position, moving quickly with a 1-2 step and returning forward.

  1. Control the neck and chest, placing hands together near the chest area.
  2. Lean forward, keeping the left foot up, and instead of stepping down, cut the left foot across to attempt a side pass.
  3. Keep both feet inside, lower them, and then place both feet outside before removing them.
  4. In the De La Riva guard, maintain neck control with a low grip and use the feet to create an angle for removing the De La Riva hook.
  5. Pull, step back, step forward, and then control the neck with both hands together.
  6. Keep the left foot raised and lean forward, placing the foot down.
  7. Instead of stepping down, cut the foot to the side to pass to the upper side.
  8. Remove the feet, ensuring both are inside, lower them, and then place one foot outside.
  9. Press both feet together and remove them to complete the pass.
