Open Guard to Lasso and De La Riva Sweep (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to use the lasso and de la riva to sweep the opponent over. Lucas starts with the open guard and uses his feet on the hips to push the opponent away. This allows him to create space so he can get the lasso on one side. The opponent reacts by moving forward in an attempt to block. Lucas then moves the lasso leg down to the de la riva. Lucas now has the de la riva and lasso on the same side. He uses a combination of push and pull to off balance the opponent. Lucas then sweeps the opponent over to the side.
