When you have a sleeve grip, you can configure your legs to the Tripod Sweep or Sickle Sweep. Both sweeps require a foot on his hip and an ankle grip on the same side. Push on the hip and pull on his ankle. Your other leg is used to stop the far leg from moving to retain balance. The sleeve grip is very helpful towards pulling you up when the opponent falls so that you can have an easier pass.
