For the next 3 months will be moving most of our focus to The leg drag , posture, and glove swim ...

I am more worried about the timing and posture issues than the whip for The whip will get greatly better after those issues are improved :)

Glove swim has her torso rotated ahead of her hips... this negates all hip torque and a lot of whip. In order to maximize the whip, the 4 corners (2 hips and 2 shoulders) must be still and quiet with a solid brush.... with her shoulders and torso rotated ahead of her hips she is missing all brush, a ton of whip, a ton of spin, and will never be able to throw a riseball.... JMHO. good luck, James

Like to see the whole pitch... to see how she is getting to this... :cool:

I posted this because it is the result and it also shows me the cause. I can not get my gifs small enough to post the whole gif I will post some smaller clips that show the whole pitch

Can you put the clip on You-Tube ???? It can be a real nice looking .gif to save for starting point.... I put them together, but they have been rendered differently...

Out of curiosity, how has her speed improvement come along. IIRC that was her main concern at the beginning. I think she looks pretty darn good. Fix what you noted, add the whip Ken mentioned with some brush and I see big things.
