1st, 2nd, and 3rd pic the ball is incoming. See whatever you want.
Prove your point. Post your kid's swing and stats.
'til then, I'm done.

You said barrel in space early correct? Later in time? What don’t i understand? I thinks someone is stumped...

Finally a video.
How tall and what's she weigh?
What's the bat speed and ball exit speed?
Where'd the ball go?
Second video won't play.
I don’t know why it matters? 5’8” 140lbs on a good day. Don’t know her Metrics. Don’t care to know. I’ll try again.

You talk about force and sequence and losing the barrel so it must affect something and the way to measure would be metrics and stats, not opinions.
I can't tell the ball exit speed from the video so if she weighs 90 lbs vs 190lbs there'd be a difference; efficiency vs size.
Does she hit to get to first or is she swinging for the fences?

You don't understand centrifugal force and the non inertial reference frame.
She hit in the 4 hole last year. She didn’t swing for the fences. She has efficient force production. She doesn’t need to swing hard. The mechanics should work for you. Not you work the mechanics. Ever heard a pro say ‘ I don’t have to do too much’, that’s the feeling of having good force production. Watch the pros. They don’t swing very hard. But they are very quick and efficient.
Bobby,
It’s a known fact that once the barrel is below your hands it better be at the ball or you are losing the pendulum and all the momentum and force of your swing. You don’t need a sensor for that.

Bobby I don’t think you understand what needs to happen to have an efficient swing sequence. The only metric that matters is time to contact. If the ball is hit with force within a five frame swing time then the hitter has efficient force production. Don’t get sucked into metrics that don’t matter.
Maybe Lauren can shed some light on it for you. She keeps the barrel up pretty good.
