This technique began with Op on your butter fly guard. Double under hook Op's torso, roll to back pulling Op over while shoving him forcefully to one side. Simultaneously pivot your own torso to opposite side. You can assist yourself by under hooking Op's leg and pull yourself perpendicular to Op's torso. Meanwhile the other hook stays in place. Take your own leg (on the same side to which you pivoted) release hook and shoot it through Op's legs while maintaining under hook on Op's leg. The leg you just shot through, weave it over top of Op's thigh and plant foot on the inside of his hip while keeping pressure on his far inner thigh with your other hook...
An aside: from this position you could very well apply an inverted heel hook or even transition to a knee bar.
The next part is predicated upon the event that the Op tries to come back toward you to stabilize his base. At this point, while you far leg is still hooked, you un-weave your near leg from over top Op's thigh and shoot it through to far leg establishing the X guard (at this point you could extend and destabilize Op's base for a take down/sweep but the next part is predicated on Op seeing what's happening and trying to step out of your X guard. When this happens extend your X guard and sit up simultaneously while still controlling Op's near leg with under hook. As you sit up and extend post free arm to mat and get to feet. While the Op is trying to pull away you should still have full control of his trailing leg which you cand drag down to the mat and then transition to take Op's back.
