De La Riva Escape to Knee Cut Pass with Knee Shield to Kimura or Armbar (Advanced)

The opponent has the de la riva. Lucas pushes the foot down and steps over it to isolate it. He pinches his legs together to trap the knee and make the opponent square up. He pushes the opponent to the side and lifts his ankle up to go for the knee cut. At the same time he is going for the knee cut, Lucas under hooks the arm and cups the shoulder while posting on the mat with his other hand. He now adjusts his hips to remove the knee shield and sits over the leg. As the opponent reaches for Lucas’ far side leg, Lucas immediately moves back in to under hook the head. He pushes the opponent away, making him turn his body and makes him release the grip on the pants to pass. Lucas now isolates the arm and gets the kimura lock. He now moves to the s mount position. From here, he can finish with the kimura submission or spin to the side to get the armbar.
