Here’s a half guard sweep I can personally vouch for. I use it all the time when I’m training with the gi.

I’ve even used this technique in competition when my opponent stood up to pass my half guard. Passing the belt through his legs stopped the guard pass and gave me the sweep.

Obviously this particular variation relies on you getting a good grip on your opponent’s belt. But I think you should study this sweep even if you train mostly without the gi!

That’s because this technique is similar to the transition from the half guard to the single leg takedown, which is a bread and butter half guard technique both in ‘regular’ BJJ and also in no-gi grappling.

Anyway, check out this BJJ Half Guard Sweeping technique, demonstrated on me by Oscar Daniotti, a BJJ Black Belt under Ricardo de la Riva.
