Difference imo is Lindor's "pullback" is synced up better with his move out.

This is why I'd really like to see a live pitching or even machine/front toss vice tee swing.

She does have classic good signs understanding to stay back and not release as front foot comes forward; she even has a little extra reach back at the frames just after toe touch and before heel down which is really wanting to feel the proper stretch (I'm hoping this is in live swing to). We analyze lots of swings and I can't tell you how many are not at this good of a position at toe touch/heel plant, tons of girls leaking forward to soon not having proper sequence, but I am really holding off judgement until I see a swing not off a tee...but to put this in a classic all back and all forward handsy swing category is off base again JMHO....

I'd even going as far to say that this is all front side action. Also an all arm swing. It's a not a separation as much as it's a wind up of the arms/hands to chop down on the swing. It's JMHO and how I see it.
I can see what you're saying. How would I go about drilling or coaching up that barrel turn and creation of the corner? I'm having trouble trying to explain it to her.

Only live video I have of her hitting is from a backstop gopro. We're playing this weekend so I'll see if I can get something from the side.

Unfortunately I don’t think the swing will change much with a moving ball.

The balance point that is shown in your ‘still’ shot is out of position at that point in the sequence. The mass is still more back then middle. Not much you can do from that position.

Separation is achieved before foot down.

The front shoulder of Lindor is lower, down and in. The girl never gets down and is a little higher then the back shoulder at launch and before launch..
