About this video

Executing a Lasso De La Riva Kimura Sweep transitioning to an Arm Bar:

  1. Start by controlling your opponent with a lasso and extending your leg to enter the De La Riva guard.
  2. Reach for a Kimura grip on the opponent's arm while maintaining the De La Riva hook.
  3. Switch the angle to prepare for the sweep, letting go of the initial grip to secure the Kimura.
  4. As you attempt the Kimura, transition to an armbar by scooping the opponent's elbow with your free hand.
  5. Close your elbow to secure the arm and finish the armbar.
  6. If the opponent's arm is more extended, scoop the elbow, twist, and close your elbow to finalize the armbar.

This sequence offers a fluid transition from a lasso De La Riva position to a submission, capitalizing on the Kimura grip to set up an armbar finish.
