No. Dicarlo s hands come forward first Pattar. Don’t graze over the details.

Not what Aj does

I'm having a hard time seeing DiCarlo's hands at the start of any of those 3 swings to be able to compare their movement to when the barrel starts to move.

Here's another swing of hers from 2 different angles...https://twitter.com/i/status/1109878225881030658

IMO, DiCarlo is a very good example of a swing with the intent of TTB to create early bat speed and launch the barrel from behind the rear leg.

I think he was talking about her practice swings...

Way too much focus on TTB IMO. Take with a grain of salt OP, but I would focus more on body and what it should be doing. Some people say, just TTB, and the body will react appropriately. I'm not a big fan of that. Speaking from my own personal experience with my DD.

Looks like a neck slot and TTB.
