Spider Guard Pass Defense to Reverse De La Riva to Back Take (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri shows how to prevent an opponent from passing the spider guard and then shows how to take the back. Lucas has the spider guard and the opponent starts to pass using a knee cut. Lucas immediately unbalances the opponent so he can go to the reverse de la riva. The grip from the collar is then switched to the near side ankle. Lucas pushes with his legs so he can spin under the opponent. As he spins, he is able to place his legs behind the opponent’s legs so he can push the opponent away to secure the back take.
