De La Riva and Lasso Guard Pass to Mount (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri demonstrates a technique for passing the De La Riva and Lasso guard and advancing to mount. He starts by addressing the common scenario where the opponent transitions from Lasso to De La Riva guard as you attempt to pass. Lucas emphasizes the importance of controlling the opponent's belt to neutralize the Lasso and prevent sweeps. He then details how to create space, break the opponent's grips, and transition to a dominant position for passing. Lucas shows how to use shoulder pressure and knee positioning to advance and secure the mount, while also demonstrating a variation for transitioning to the back.
