2 Part Lesson — Marcelo dismantles the Spider/Lasso and subsequent Omoplata attack: [I] Try to avoid giving your opponent control over both left and right sides after you break open his Closed Guard; if he finds the Lasso Hook, control the opposite side by either dominating his wrist or foot, or avoid letting him make any grips or hooks entirely. Place weight on top of the Lasso to lower his foot within reach of your leg to hop over and cover it. Duck under his foot to regain control over the inside space. [II] If your opponent uses the Lasso to spin under for an Omoplata, use your knee to press down inside his leg to help free yourself from the danger.
