Step by step

With your leg trapped, wrap the head from the opposite side so you do not expose your back.
Set your body on a diagonal, underhook with the other arm and join your hands in the five finger grip.
Press the shoulder into his face to control the head and take his attention off the lock.
Slide the knee of the trapped leg near his armpit and bring the free leg closer.
Place the free foot inside the lock and raise your hips without releasing the pressure.
Kick one leg down and pull the other, completely freeing the trapped leg.
Choose the direct entry to mount: slide your knee across the abdomen instead of circling to the side.
Close your knees, set the hook against his bridge and stabilize mount.
