Video technique review

Got a camera in Guam last week to record some fish and stuff. Now that I'm back home I can put it to better use and try to improve my style. Here are several clips, two from yesterday and one from today. My left hand crosses into my right side and my right hand goes way outside at mid-stroke. Not sure if this is a balance compensation but I havent been able to correct it yet 2009_1102i0007.flv video by C6C6CH3vo - Photobucket

  • Yes, I see it now. The clip from several day's ago shows active catching compared to today's clip where my hand just sit's there doing nothing as I slow down. Something just didn't feel right today in front of the camera, and I bet after filming the catch was more active like before because it felt better. Relapses will happen, thanks for pointing this out! My goal is to get a feel for the hand sinking upon entry with both arms, shoulder flexing, high elbows all at once naturally. Using the high elbow recovery arm to assist and transfer energy to the catching hand's movement downward. This is my goal but finding it will take some practice
