Is this swinging down? Or is the swing just tilted?

Can you see the Ferris wheel in this swing?

I see a ferris wheel in this one at 51 seconds. The bat is ferris wheeling because he is moving his hands down and forward. Not because he is turning his hands a la the jar.

Everybody TTB to some degree, even George Brett a little. You can experiment with it. Try the Gary Sheffield move. It might work for some but not all. The swing isn't one size fits all. I don't see a ferris wheel. I see a tilt a whirl. At least I stayed in the Amusement Park.

Yes, a tilt a whirl.😎

The Ferris wheel is meant to teach you hand
action.

Shawn i looked into the "ferris wheel" you referred to. Its nonsense. I think chipper is working on resisting the ferris wheel in all honesty. IMO you are practicing the exact opposite of them.

I didn’t understand the Ferris wheel in the past either.

Shawn. Please start hitting a ball. And maybe try what chipper, trout, bonds et al say. They are/were professional hitters. Just because 12 year olds cant do what they say doesnt mean its wrong. They know exactly what they are doing.
