12m
When you have the double sleeve grips while your opponent is standing, you can use the Spider Guard Scissors sweep to get him to step over your leg so you can transition into 50/50 and then do a 70/30 sweep. If you also have the option to go into backside X-guard for a sweep, regardless of whether or not you have the sleeve grips. If you can't get him to step over your leg to defend the spider guard scissors sweep, you can enter the De La Riva X guard and then use the double sleeve grips to pull his weight backwards for a sweep.
