I watched the first one. Wow, she's amazing. And not to hijack a thread, I watched some other clips of her and there were some comments that she crowhops? Not to pelt a hornet's next, but that can't be right, can it? And that of course started me down the wormhole of what crowhopping is, replant, etc., none of which I'm sure I understand. If my DD crowhopped, I'd know it, right? Coaches and umps would be quick to call it, wouldn't they?

And away we go...no you cannot count on coaches and/or umps to alert you to it. But if you post some video of her pitching we will tell you definitively if she is leaping or skipping.

and Cat does leap, she always has, she does not crow hop.

Sorry - didn't mean to stir controversy. DD doesn't leap at all, I'm wondering if she will learn to throw that way at some point. Thanks.
