Continuing from the last video, we talk a bit about dealing with reverse De La Riva - a common, effective inversion mechanism from the guard. If we fail to address it early, the guard player can create opportunities to off-balance the passer, entangle the legs, and even expose the back.

Here we briefly demonstrate framing at the hip to prevent the guard player from rotating underneath and note that a careful study of pressure application can be helpful both in maintaining our base while passing and limiting the guard player's offensive opportunity.

P.S. Is my uke slightly impaired here or not? 🤔 You be the judge 😂
