• Reverse de la Riva Gua...
Ostap is an outstanding instructor. I began training BJJ under his tutelage until I got my blue belt. Unfortunately I moved out of Toronto and couldn't continue to train with him anymore. His attention to detail and overall intelligence on the mats is impressive.
Stephen always such a good breakdown of not just the move but the reason for the move and plan B
Such a great (i.e. clear) tutorial of the reverse de la riva. One of my favourites...most of your videos are! Thanks, Stephan!
Easily the best tutorial on Kiss of the dragon in general and no gi especially, thank you Ostap oss
That was really helpful. I get passed all the time with that cut pass and I have such a hard time stopping the guys who are better than I am. I knew of the reverse de la riva but did not know how to use it, so I would find myself going there when they do that pass, but without knowing how to use it I would just get passed anyway. I can't wait to try this out tmrw. I hope you guys have more of this position in the future. Thanks for this!
Very informative! I love browsing through your videos just prior to practice at my school. I hope to reach your level some day. Keep up the fantastic videos Stephan!
This is just great. I always go back to this video, really explains the basic ideas behind RDLR in the best way possible.
love the live speed at the end. thanks for sharing!
Seriously, I love watching all of your videos. Very very informative. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
Wow, I’m enjoying this offensive component to the reverse dela riva!
I was able to do this in practice for the first time thanks to this video. Great tips.
great video. I have had great success with this sweep and guard in practice.
VERY WELL EXPLAINED! Great technique, Awesome instruction.
Very nice video and very detailed explanation good job Ostap and ofcourse you Stephan
Ostap is the coolest!
Ostap..that's a good name.. good techniques too.
Amazing video! Ostap is a great teacher!
excellent instruction. thank you
Excellent explanation! Very good video from both of you! OSS!🤙🏻🥋
Awesome details thanks !
Good instruction, similar motion to cyborg's tornado, as a half guard player can always use knee slide counters
Thanks for the great videos. I really enjoy your subjects
This is a fantastic video.
I like it! Although it's pretty advance for me right now, and a bit sport orientated.
Nice video, thanks!
Greetings from brazil!
GOLD video
hes awesome ive seen him at alliance some times
Hi Ostap
So I use the Reverses dela riva a lot but I have trouble with short stockier guys doing the knee cut. Since their legs are so short their knee just goes through my hooks and pass. I usually have trouble with guys with shorter legs.
It may be a timing issue of following his kneecutting leg with your RDLR leg. You need to catch it as they come in (or as they lift it, if they do it out of half guard). If they get their heel you their butt or their knee hits the mat, before you secure your hook, you will have to go to a later stage defense.
thanks so much
Thnx sensie. It is real good job what u are doing
great video
Kesting, love your instructionals! Always so easy to understand. I'm a new purple belt and one of my goals is to have a complete game from every position. Not to be an expert from every position but having at least a working gameplan from every position with a few combos/options. So my question is for someone at Kesting's level or even brown belt level and above: If Kesting is saying he's not an expert on RDLR what does he do (or what do you do) when someone pushes the leg through when you're doing DLR? It seems to me like RDLR is a great option when that happens and a good position to cultivate as part of my game. What is your go-to move when they push the leg through? Dive under the far leg and go for an X-guard style sweep with the knees pinched? Break their grip and just try to recover DLR? Use RDLR just long enough to recover back to DLR but not try to "play" from RDLR? Or like so much of Jiu-Jitsu "Depends on what my opponent gives me"?
Such a good video
Great moves
Amazing Video!!!
Surprendente video!!!
THANKS!!!! GRACIAS!!!!
Awesome. Thank you.
You guys rule great videos great explaination
This is great, thx!
What a great video! Thanks Stephan and Ostap! Any other attacks from the RDLR Guard? That's most definitely the primary attack, what is the follow-up attack if the spin-under is defended?
Another option, if they are with in range with their far leg is a tripod sweep. You can also come up for a single leg.
ostapbjj Sweet! Thank you again.
to me the position at 2:50 is more of what I would call spiral guard.
Reverse dlr is more putting your right shin into the inside of stephen's right knee as far as I think of the terminology these days.
Reverse dlr is really easy to turn into x-guard or 1/2 guard.
I thought they were the same thing?
I have been playing with Reverse DLR for a bit now and I keep getting caught in toe holds on the spin under ( shown at 8:00 ) ... Any tips or suggestions on how to prevent this?
I used to have exactly the same problem when playing Reverse de la Riva the solution I found was to wear safety shoes with steel toe cap since then never got caught again.Hope this helps
Check out the "reverse de la riva lockdown" this will prevent the foot submissions.
awesome!
is this suitable for street where groin shots are possible?
Ostap's flexibility is amazing, anybody have any tips on how to make your knees more flexible?
Yoga every day
at 3:26 what if the opponent is ... about 2m big and 300pounds of muscles?
that has always been the question with jiujitsu what if you are fighting some one way too big for you, whats the biggest opponent you can handle with jiujitsu? and if you really would like to go to the ground with a stronger bigger dude , but definitely if he has grappling skills and is bigger you shouldnt lol anyway i think thats why the fight between bob sap and nogueira is a classic and epic battle for the bjj community lol
Ether way the best option with a 300 pound muscle man is hope for better cardio...lol. I would test his stand-up and if he had ANY skill then I would try to take it to the ground and hope my skill outweighs his. If his skill is good down there then this were your escapes come in handy for your retreat. Ether way I'd rather fight a bigger person on the ground then standing up but my stand up is good so......
won a competition with that ty
I was so surprised I hit this go behind as a white belt I forgot everything and just stuck both feet in his butt, pushed him forward then went for a wrestling ride which I soon lost.
Whatever happened to Ostap?
Lol five years later and I have to agree, this is a great video!!
so this is basically an advanced half guard :D?
oh you mean spiral guard?
Would DLR or reverse DLR be considered knee reaping? I've seen some weird calls on that so its best to be clear
+Jacob Sandlin Only issue related to knee reaping with De La Riva guard is underhooking the trapped leg instead of just grabbing the ankle.
Toe hold?
RightWingCon81 Trust me, I've tried...if they're fast enough, you won't get a toe hold lol.
DJ Quals Reverse de la riva's good boom!
underrated reference
@incardia then you are in the wrong weight class.
6:34
It's kinda dangerous, I know a guy who got sit on when spinning like that and cracked his skull open
Freak accident
Such a basic move I would prefer Stephan to give the class
Fucking awesome :)
Im here because of Luke Thomas
You're here because a condom broke.

So the Rdlr is inferior to the Dlr? He's saying you always want to transition to Dlr from Rdlr...
To stop the pass, yes. Rdlr is better than being passed.
If the guy is going for a knee slice then the RDLR is superior. Once the pass is no longer a threat, the DLR is superior.
Lol ostap is small... But dangerous i bet.
