Got me some new gif software here is 2 interesting clips out of the original video :)

Something tells me she needs to close a little more at release ...

I don't view Ueno as one who slams like what is often mis-taught. She stabilizes her torso just before and through release, before following through with the arm/shoulders.

I think her torso angle is fine. Focus on whip.

her whole arm from 3 inches up from her wrist to her shoulder is on the middle of her side compare that to the gifs java posted.

look at her wrist and hand in the second picture they have disappeared but the forearm and upper arm is still on her side that's weird ...

Like this...?

I believe this is one of her drop balls. The shoulders are quite open here and the only thing visible to the catcher is the ball. The upper arm is completely hidden.

yes but ueno continues to close My dd holds that open position till well after the ball is gone its hard to explain but what I mean is for her to let her shoulders rotate some through the release She holds them till well after the ball is gone
