Deep Half Guard Entry from Butterfly, 1Leg X Guard Entry from Deep Half
Paul asks Marcelo how he should transition to the 1Leg X-Guard when his opponent drops his far knee to the mat. The movement involved in quite similar to what should be done when the other knee is on the mat; you must insert your knee up in between his legs and create a butterfly hook from which to help move him into a more threatening position. If the near knee is down, circle your hook underneath, lift, and press him up onto the 1Leg X. If the far knee is down in your Deep Half, release his foot, slip your knee through, and hip escape to transition into your X series.
