[Bold by Yoda/Yoda.] First of all, my quoted response above was made while you were still asking questions and before you disclosed your own "view." So, at the time, there was no "view" to "support," "dismiss," or "gloss over." Further, my comment was quite specific and did not "gloss over" anything. You asked what angle the Flail (the assembly of Left Arm and Club) makes with the ground when it gets In Line (given a vertical plane of motion). I replied that the theoretical answer was 90 degrees since the Flail gets In Line at Low Point (and therefore with Zero Forward Lean per 2-K #2). But we seldom locate the Ball at Low Point. We locate it behind Low Point. Hence, from a practical standpoint, the Flail usually gets In Line well before Low Point, thus creating a Forward Lean of the Left Arm Flying Wedge (the Left Arm and Clubshaft) and an angle greater than 90 degrees. That precise angle is dependent upon the degree of Forward Lean at Fix. And that is exactly what I said. Specifically, the degree of "Flail Lean" at Full Extension (In Line) will be determined by the distance the Left Hand must move (from its Impact Fix Location) as the Wrist completes its Uncocking Motion (from Level to Uncocked). __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
