Not yet documented
The Kimura Grip Sweep is a closed guard sweep that uses the kimura (figure-four) grip as both a submission threat and a sweeping mechanism — when the opponent defends the kimura by posturing, the attacker uses the kimura grip leverage to sweep them instead, and when they defend the sweep by staying low, the kimura submission becomes available. [1] This is one of the best examples of the sweep-submission chain principle in BJJ. [1],[2]

The Kimura grip from closed guard functions as both a sweep and submission threat — the figure-four grip on the wrist creates a powerful lever for off-balancing. If the sweep fails, the Kimura submission is immediately available. (Jiu-Jitsu University, Ribeiro; Mastering Jujitsu, Gracie & Danaher)
Use your other foot to peel their leg off and continue to side control. BJJ4Breakfast notes that this is a common occurrence—even if they capture your leg as you sweep over, you can simply push it off with your free foot and secure your five points.
After performing a hip escape to prevent your opponent from tucking their hand into their groin, insert your butterfly hook underneath their leg, take your other foot off their leg, and use the butterfly hook to lift and bump them over.
You should land in side control, which scores five points—two for the sweep itself and three for the side control position.
