Deep Half Guard Question

[Landon DuMar]

I've been watching the Ryan Hall Deep Half Guard DVDs, and I want to know how you would complete the waiter sweep without having a gi to hold on to? Any help would be appreciated.

ok, so you go into deep half,
you wrap your leg around them like anaconda guard,
you put your wrist on the INSIDE of your body not OUTSIDE his leg INSIDE to his ANKLE.
doing this makes their leg lighter and easier to move
as you lift UP with your wrist you push DOWN on their leg
=
sweep

Yes, I watched that video too, but what Hall was saying the DVD was that the guy can post with both his hands and then be able to shrimp their hips away if you don't control their posts. In this video they partner just falls back. I just trust what Ryan Hall is saying more than a video some guy threw up on youtube.

At 3:30 into that video you can see Hall holding the right sleeve of the guy he's trying to sweep

I'm not sure but I think the trick is to be Ryan Hall at about 2:39 of this video

Not always gonna be an option to get the wrist, I was taught to hook the leg like the first video. If you can get the wrist then get it, the more limbs you can control the better.

The real problem

This thread has little or no Jeff Glover in it.
