Bingo. 12-6 is swivel.
The way I interpret 12-6 is having a tighter hand pivot point. I may be totally wrong here but seems to make sense to me being used in that regards.

For my money this is what this gadget will cause..The barrel weighted moves rearward and cause the elbow to win the race. The additional force is not good.
I would only use it to feel the handle force rearward. I wouldn't take it to contact or half swing!
What you see is a kid whos been taught to force adduction but don't lower your shoulder yet force the tilt as well.
The latest rage is the rearward barrel? This is just now being taught? The latest rage is the EV and LA?
I SEE A TON of forced tilt and forced handle pressure rearward. I do agree that the barrel travels rearward but I believe the swivel happens much earlier than what I'm seeing here and what I'm seeing taught!
I feel that forcing tilt is a huge mistake! Forced handle pressure or SOLEY FOCUSING ON RB is making one late to the swivel! That's not good!

Good post but isn't snapping over the elbow the same as snapping away from you? If snapping away from you means snapping behind you?
Please go in to more detail!
WRT the bold.... I personally do not like the cue of snap the barrel reward I much prefer turn the barrel forward to the ball.
