Very generalized order of movements: 1. Sit back a little into your hips 2. "Heart" grip on your opponent's sleeve (of the arm that's grabbing your lapel) and in one strong motion separate the grip directly away from your chest (idk which of these parts of step 3 should happen first) 3a. Release your inside hand's grip on the sleeve and reach down for the cross-collar grip on your opponent, pinning your knuckles to his throat. 3b. Release your outside hand and move it under your opponent's leg, grabbing their pants. This leg controls distance. 4. With the grip on his pants and the cross-collar, step back with your back foot getting the foot out of your hips. This appeared to be more of a pivot motion in the video rather than a straight step back. 5a. Step back into position with your leg now past the foot that was controlling your hips. "Squat" over the opponent's leg/foot, keeping your weight and posture strong but low. 5b. This is a quick motion. Using your outside hand (with your inside hand still controlling the collar) push the opponent's knee inside and wave your shoulder over, placing that leg under your armpit. *It seems advantageous to keep your elbow low to the opponent's sternum with your inside arm at a ≈90 degree angle bend at the elbow. The goal seems to be to eliminate space for the opponent to get their knee back in position. 6a. Aiming for something resembling a split squat stance, lower and "slide" your lower body inward (maintaining control of the knee/leg under your armpit). As a midway position you should reach a point where your inside leg's upper shin is just above the opponent's knee and your outside leg is based wide out having moved very little from where it was when you did the step over in step 4. When you reach this position you should reach for the under hook with the hand that had the cross collar grip 6b. Guiding your weight to the mat base out with your inside hand (not the one that's holding the under hook) begin moving your outside leg in and slide your shin over you opponent's knee and past the leg. You should end up in a position where your lower body has the opponent's legs stacked sideways between your knees and your upper body has an under hook for control and an outside base with your hand/arm and head. 6c. With the leg that has slid past the opponent's knees and legs, make a strong open and post up. You then shift your hips back using your underhook and unpassed leg to almost crunch your opponent into a "V" position on their side. -- At this point (3:02) you should have an underhook control on one side with your head and arm posted out on the other side. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE YOUR OPPONENTS SHOULDERS. One leg should be pushing into the back of their legs (keeping your thigh under their knee joints) and your other leg posted out. Your hips should be shifted into them, keeping your opponent in a crunched "V" position 7. While controlling the upper body, use your back leg to pull in your opponent's legs closer to your foot that's posted out wide. 8. With your posted out leg, back step over your opponent's legs and switch your legs. This motion should move your leg that was crunching their lower body over to their tailbone and your leg that has stepped back should take it's place. One leg should be just above the butt (Think of putting your knee behind their hip that's on the mat) and the other behind their legs right at the knees, forming something resembling a chair like position for the opponent. 9. Be ready for them to attempt to hip escape. When they do they should fall right into side control. Be sure to remove your underhook and move on top of the shoulder for a cross face. Notes: - While in the De La Riva guard it's very important to not let your opponent control your posture - In the guard, the leg controls distance and the arm controls posture. -This pass focuses on first removing the posture control then removing the distance control. Then forcing them into a heavily restricted posture and moving around it. - Everything about the De La Riva, both guarding and passing, is about posture control. I am not an expert. These notes were made for my personal study of this technique.

What prevents the guard player from regrabbing the collar?
