The half guard and specifically the ‘lock down’ is the basis to the 10th Planet attack from this position. Getting the Lock Down is super important to control the leg.

Stephan Kesting from http://www.grapplearts.com/Half-Guard-Sweeps-Info.php quickly shows two common half guard passes, and then teaches you how to take advantage of those positions and sweep your opponent anyhow

In this video you’ll learn how to attack your opponent’s outside arm with an armbar when he defends his near arm. You’ll also learn how to keep him from redefending his other arm. Some points that are mentioned in the video:

* If the arm you are attacking is on top, then there isn’t a need to attack his outside arm. Just go for the near arm because he’s not defending well.
* If the arm that you are attacking is on the bottom then it’ll be harder to finish the near side arm and that’s when it’s a good option to switch the attack to the other arm.
* Pull his opposite arm elbow in with the forearm of your arm that is closer to his legs/hips.
* Then grab his wrist of his nearside arm with your hand and push it down into his face. This will help to prevent him from switching his grip and defending the other arm your about to attack.
* Keep your butt low and tight when you slide it over his body to the other side.
* The wrist of your arm that isn’t controlling his other arm should curl out and then go under the wrist of the outside arm you are now attacking.
* If your position is correct your opponent should have a hard time defending his other arm and the arm you are now attacking should be more exposed.

This video explains the names behind the rubber guard (why they are called what they are) and a step by step method behind the BASIC rubber guard set up.

There are MANY variations and attack positions but I only cover the basics here: mission control, zombie,new york, chill dog, kung fu move into jiu claw.

There are more advanced attacks and sweeps from anyone of those positions like: invisible collar, asylum, straight jacket, double bagger, reaper, gogoplata, locoplata, Croc, swim move and MANY more.

There are several ways and grips to set up the Peruvian Necktie. This is how we do it in the 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu system. You can’t have your hands too tight or they will pop off when you sit back and throw the leg over. This is a very tight choke which comes on in less than 3 seconds.
