Swing feedback

[mann]

Back to the "fire" vs "release" debate. Sports science seems to like the "fire" terminology better.

I get a better result when i think "fire" rather than "release also.

Soccer season now but getting in a little work. Technical thoughts always welcome! Thanks

Nice to see her rear leg doing what it was 700 posts ago. Still think that was right then. Just keep working on delaying the hands (tip late, load those into lower half unload)

You're correct, I'm not a fan of what DD rear leg/foot/knee does. Seems to be 'looking' for some momentum 'help' for her hips. I still believe DD is leaving some power on the table. Again JMHO.

Just me 'nit picking'.

Rdb, your "just nit pickin" is where the frames are missing. A huge little thing.

RHC/RD - Personally I think she has a good swing for her age. I just think she needs better separation on top of what she is doing. Hands leaking down a little early. Get timing of hands correct, coil gets held longer. If dad just got behind her and grabbed knob - or pulled know up a bit more as she's moving out/coiling forward - she may be able to feel where she needs to get. I think it may been you RDB or RHC that said stretch hands against back knee going down - may help here. What do you want to see happen?

What RDP and RHC are talking about is the overlap...the load-into-the-unload...the pull-back of the hands against the hip turning forward...the wringing of the rag...

The action of the rear knee turning back over the rear foot isn't helping her achieve that.

Been busy. Yes, what Eric said. She blasts her arms past her lower half rather than the rear leg/hip pulling and whipping the hands and bat. If it works for her, great. But as RDB said he was nit picking and I said what he was seeing different is a more then a nit to me.
