Passing the De La Riva Guard is one of the most important skill sets in passing the guard. It is probably the easiest guard for someone to establish and therefore the most important to know how to pass.
The purpose of this video is to define the main pass options you have in the position so you know what to consider when deciding how to deal with the position. Part 2 of this series will cover the ways your opponent can control you with varying grip variations and help guide you to choose the best pass choice.
List of Passes from Video
Knee Cut, Shin Slide, Leg Drag, Reverse Leg Drag, Leg Trap(Stuff), Folding Pass, DLR Side Knee Smash, Stack Pass, Kick the Grip off Ankle.
