Yeah I was thinking battering ram or drilling deep hyzers with flippy plastic to keep my angles honest.Likely need more side bend to get it to gel:
[COLOR=var(--text-lighter)] I suspect that this has to do with rear leg balance and/or how I'm attempting to load/coil into the rear leg - perhaps too shoulder-focused instead of ????[/COLOR]
Just a couple overall comments:
You've got a lot of the horizontal parts, but not the vertical parts of the move. So I'd probably invest time there.
Overall the tilt of double dragon is missing back and forth. Most adults have a lot of trouble with it at first. Make it nice and big and reciprocating back and forth. Should probably post it from side and rear of tee. People usually have trouble with parts of it that are always related to the problems in the throw.
When you use your pendulum it's only doing half of its job- when I power mine up and I'm in decent sequence and posture, my arm mass going forward is literally helping to pull my entire body forward. Obligatory Thor gif:
So my move now feels like I'm coming off the rear side of double dragon (rear leg issue aside), pumping forward to keep the momentum going toward the target, then swinging back into the rear side of double dragon, then landing and throwing out of it. That big double dragon action and pendulum momentum is basically the whole effortless power engine of the move. The DD part will probably end up smaller in your move with your body type but you wanna get it in there.
Both the recent one and the preceding pendulum.Many thanks. For clarity's sake, was this in response to my most recent vid? Reason I ask is you mention the pendulum and I've used a pendulum style throw in past recent videos.
But you also reference the pendulum momentum in general so just wanted to be sure.
Ok this concept is starting to make sense.Likely need more side bend to get it to gel:
That is pretty good - I would just be careful about sequence like Riding the Bull and that your center/balance are fully moving foot to foot since his feet are fairly "glued" to the ground- you want to move more like walking. Rear heel should be coming up moving each way. If you kept going, it would do what the Pratt drill does getting you fully deweighted off each foot.
