I have always kept my fingers together so that my hand approximates a paddle during my pull. Should I be opening my fingers a bit to increase the surface area? It might also keep the tension a bit lower in my hands and arms durung the pull. Your input is greatly appreciated. Rob

    Is that hand relaxed? Great video. To try and answer your question. It's not cupped or clenched tight.
