Ted,
I NEVER teach a double shift....I DO allow it. Big difference. You missed one important point, the guy from Louisiana could have made you a better player than the one who wouldn't adapt. You see, that's IS the debate (and where your former teacher went wrong) Adjust until it works or not. Let the IMPERATIVES dictate the components. Oh yeah, one day I'll show you how to fade it with a flat left wrist finish swivel. No problem....IF you know how to teach.;) |
The Correct Finish Swivel

I wouldn't label say this is a forest fire yet. I've seen much worse (not around here fortunately!). I love lively debates with a bit of emotion, people fighting for what they believe in. And this is what we have here. The point is that Brian doesn't just teach the "through the neck pivot center". I think (correct me if I'm wrong Brian), if you were to coach Ted now, you would not get him to change from 'head center' to 'neck center'. |

I have no problem teaching the appropriate finish swivel as explained in the book. It's not my own creation. |

How 'bout that! |

Moving or Rotating?
|
I like annikan skywalker rear view. To me that is easier to see what is what regarding moving and rotation.
Does Tiger set up with his shoulders open somewhat to the target line? I couldn't quickly find a picture if he did or not. None the less I think it shows the head rotation effect. The hip rotation/slide on the backstroke And the leg action on down and follow through. Boy that left leg really raises the left shoulder, changes the axis tilt. Thought it was interesting his head never gets back to the position (alignment/orientation) that the had at address till the ball is well away. The second frame is closer to the impact position than the first. |
