Is getting a side view of some front toss swings possible? That's probably the best way to really see where you are at. Many times tee swings or side toss swings look a lot different than front toss swings.....

I can try tomorrow evening. I'm usually videoing and tossing and hoping to keep it steady lol. I'll get my stand and see what I can do.

I have something similar to this. Cheap, simple, and you can't go wrong when trying to get video by yourself!

I'm gonna get me one of those, until then I thought about this thing I had in my tools. I figure I can clamp the phone, slide it down in the tee and voila.

Got one this evening during team practice. Not sure if it's too far away or not. Def gotta get rid of the bat wrap and get her to swing harder. Anything else?

Lots to like would really like to see front toss or BP swing just to see what her timing looks like, hard to tell with side toss, most issues I see are at the beginning but my guess is they are all related to side toss and are probably not there in her normal swing

Man10 to me it looks like she isn't coiling effectively. She is using her back leg to resist her negative move which is right but she never gets into the leg. I do not see any coiling around the leg as if you are trying to twist the leg up like a candy cane. Once she starts coiling correctly it may help her to eliminate the push in her swing JMO.

Edited to add:
Man when I say leg I am referring to the thigh portion of the leg.
