Great video and explanation. I just went back and looked and she has always had the full extension at the target as the start to her swing even when she was starting. I am curious if the pros who had significant pumps also used significant pumps throwing anny because she doesn’t have nearly...

I’ve never really thought of it as a pump but that makes sense. Isaac also very consistent with a pump. She just goes straight from arm extended at the target/aligning into the swing.

She loves this sport. Her form seems to naturally get better and better and so I’m trying to just keep it...
