Backstroke options
Chuck cleared some fog for me by pointing out that 10-18-C gives the Hitter three options:

1. Let the pivot bring Horizonal Hinging to a normal on plane top position.
2. Let the pivot bring Angled Hinging to a normal on plane top position
3. Hold the wrist Vertical throughout for a true single action wrist position.

Mr. Tomasello stresses #3 while Yoda seems to favor #2. Would that difference affect either trajectory or distance?

I also noticed that Mr. Tomasello seemed to be using Vertical Hinging when talking about the height of some of his Swinging shots. In one of the earlier chapters he mentioned that Horizontal Hinging produced the lowest trajectory of the three Hinging Motions. I wish he'd said more about how Hinging affects the two stroke patterns in this segment. It's certainly an interesting chapter, though.

Many thanks for making the series available!
