2 Counters to Standing Guard Pass

These are counters to http://stile0.blogspot.com/2011/03/standing-guard-pass-with-trapped-lapel.html

Counter 1:
Step 1: As T brings their left leg around to begin the pass, I switch my lapel grip from my right hand to my left.

Step 2: My left hand grabs at the back of T's lapel at the neck

Step 3: Once T is on the ground and in my half guard, I use my half guard hook to sweep T

Step 4: Keeping the neck grip and the lapel grip I come on top and control the position

Counter 2:
*Assume T has brought their left leg around but I didn't have enough time to switch my grips on their lapel*

Step 1: I turn into T and using my right arm, I create space and bring my head against T's body

Step 2: My right arm then comes around the back of T's head and forms an S grip with my left arm that was gripping the lapel between T's legs.

Step 3: To get T over I can use my right leg *while left leg keeps T's leg trapped* to hook T's free leg to bring them over me

Step 4: Land in side control and maintain position
