I don't buy that. What are your thoughts.

More difficult to turn the hips level and maintain a steady head . . . a question for the instructor would be WHEN does the left leg get straight? The knee action pretty much controls the hip slant and also has implications on the slant of the shoulder turn which have implications on the hand path . . . . so basically all that stuff has far reaching implications on components and plane angles . . . .
