Single Leg from Butterfly, Tripod Sweep from Open Guard, 1Leg X Guard Entry from Open Guard, 1Leg X Guard Sweep from 1Leg X Guard
4 Part Lesson — Paul teaches how to combine the Tripod Sweep with 1Leg X: [I] If your opponent rushes in with his lead leg into your Seated Butterfly Guard, push his shin and retreat back; when he steps inside again, time his step and come up with a Single Leg, finishing it by Running-the-Pipe. [II] If you begin to feel the pressure of your opponent's lead knee inside your Butterfly Guard, drop your back to the mat and fill the void with your foot on his hip for the Tripod Sweep. You can tuck your knee underneath his for added support. [III] Make sure to cover the top of the opponent's foot while setting up the Tripod Sweep. Also, immediately look to hit a pass based on your opponent's reaction as he lands; if he kicks his legs forward, dive in with a Knee Slide. If his legs are light and loose, Stack him up on his neck for the Pass. [IV] If you can't find the timing for the Tripod Sweep, you can always transition to Single Leg X Guard for the Sweep.
