Very nice image, I like that alot. I see the line going down the inside of my right arm right to PP1. When I visualize that straight line from shoulder to right hand I see it parallel to the level right wrist. Using this straight line for a guide to extensor action, accumulator #1, and the bent level right wrist sounds pretty good to me.
