We are going to use this space that he is giving us, we are going to do our first sweep, it's called the Scissor Sweep, the Scissor Sweep has a couple of different set ups. First, I have to keep control of this and I am going to use this hand to control his head, I have to keep his head somewhat close to me, because if I don't, when I go for the sub, he is just going to back away.
Next thing I need to do I need to take my hips one way or the other whichever I am going to be attacking, I shrimp my hips down. This shin is going to go straight across his chest, alright, I am going to be hooking my foot, show up in multiple angles, I am going to hook my foot, on this side, this leg drops as low you can through the mat, I mean is it to chop this way, this leg is going to push this way, I am going to hold this arm and I am going to pull this arm with me, alright I got to get rid of the table theory remember, so if I don't, he is going to post out and I am not going to be able to sweep him.
So I have got to keep control on his arm, I got to keep control the head, I don't want that he just backs away, now I have lost the sweep all together, alright. So, some close guard we are here, we gain control here, we control here, we shrimp down, we open it, I am going to pull with this arm and chop my legs, and I am going to ride them all the way over the mount. This is called Scissor Sweep with this my legs literally scissor him, okay, one more time, doing the other way so you can see my foot hook, I control the head, I control the arms, I shrimp out.
So now I am grabbing on to him with my foot, I am going to pull him towards me, pull his arm and then chop my legs, all the way over the mount, alright. Alright from here, let's say our opponent is playing really low in our guard, the best way to create space is by making him think you are trying to take it away, if I just shove him, he is going to push against me. I want to control his head and pull him down, he wants to do the opposite of what I am doing, so if I am controlling him here, he is going to try to push up, clutch the leg. So I am going to pulling him and then eventually I am going to let him pull up and then that's when I have my space, control the arm, control the head, right over the mount, that's your Scissor Sweep.
