Help? DD Analysis Please?
My 8 year old is in her first year of 10U. Her swing looks pretty good, but I'd like some input. Below is a link to video of her swinging. It's a dry swing (no pitch)...haven't had someone help me record her on a live pitch (yet).
Right now, I'm working with her on keeping her weight back. The 2 red lines show her starting and ending position. I think that her body needs to be more vertical (on top of her back knee) at the completion of the swing. (see the yellow arrow for reference).

Some other questions...
1. Do you think her stride is too long? I feel like her back leg is dipping a bit much. I also feel like her front leg goes too high during stride...should be a less exaggerated step? Thoughts?
2. I feel like she's wrapping a bit...though I can't decide if that is worth worrying about?
Other thoughts/comments? I appreciate the input...been a long time lurker here, first time poster. Go easy on me.
