Awesome stuff Zog! I'll ask you because leg locks are your thing, How worried about the kneebar do you have to be while playing de la riva?

As long as I keep the near ankle hooked with my hand, and the rear butterfly hook, I'm in the clear.

I'm glad you guys dig them! I'm super pumped we've pick up some sponsors which is going towards helping us get a cage for our Academy.

Oh word? Nice.

I'm assuming this is all for the advanced class, right? Haha.

Yeah this was a series in the advanced class, however we cover the advanced class material in the all levels class on saturdays, to give you guys some exposure to the advanced material (we'll cover a lower number of the transitions with greater detail).

I've always instinctively done that de la riva to the back move since I started but I stopped doing it out of fear for the kneebar. I've never done it while holding ankle though. Great little detail. I'll start doing it again. My other concern with this, was from heavy guys scrambling while my knee is straightened out and almost messing up my knee a few times. I also preferred to grab the far side of their hip with the hand that you grab their ankle with and grabbed the other side of their hip with the other hand, so they don't unhook spin out. What do you think about grabbing their ankle with your other hand and grabbing their hip with hand you grab the ankle with?

To be honest I'm having a real hard time following your discription. How are you "grabbing their hip"? I can't imagine how its possible no-gi.

Sorry, it's hard for me to be descriptive without showing it at the same time. I don't mean grabbing, I mean more of holding them in place by holding the side of their hips while you kick their legs out. It's fine though, I troubleshooted this tonight. Your way works better.

I have been playing DLR a lot recently. The route to the back is my go-to move, because you can often force it even if someone sees it coming. The DLR also transitions into some really nice sitting guard sweeps. Basically, keep the foot that is not a DLR hook on the other knee, and always push it away. Either it will open up a variety of DLR sweeps and back takes, or allow you to sit up to a sitting guard. From there, you can either use one of Zog's leglocks, or hit one of about 100 sitting guard sweeps
