Ankle Pick Sweep from 1Leg X Guard, 1Leg X Guard to X Guard, X Guard Takedown from X Guard
3 Part Technique - Lure your opponent into the Ankle Pick Sweep by rocking him forward and backward when he holds onto your head from 1Leg X Guard. If his base is slightly forward on his toes, kick him forward with your hook -you may need to post off of the mat with your other foot if you sense resistance. When he tries to recover after posting on the mat with his hands, snatch his free ankle with your hand and push him backward for the sweep. If he happens to continue posting on the mat after you've kicked him overhead, his ankle will more than likely be out of range and you will have to resort to the X-Guard Takedown. Perform a technical stand while keeping your head high and drop him onto his back. Remember to adjust the height of your 1Leg X-Guard according to his leg length; you want to be able to control his leg above the knee so that you induce maximum imbalance against his hips.
