Guard Pull to Helicopter Armbar (Fundamentals)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to do the helicopter armbar, after pulling guard. Lucas and the opponent start standing. Lucas controls the collar and sleeve near the elbow. He steps to the side and pulls guard. In this scenario, Lucas keeps his feet on the opponent’s hip. He now raises the opponent up with his legs. Lucas now removes one foot from the hip, making the opponent fall to that side. From here, Lucas immediately locks in the armbar.
