The “swirl” that is done with the tennis racket at the end of the follow-thru to slow momentum is matched around the 2 min mark with GG doing a variation of a forearm swirl. Interesting to see side by side.
Wow. Really unlocked something here. Just by trying the tennis backhand I realized my right shoulder is not enough internally rotated on backhand throws. Its already rotated outwards and theres no range of motion for that twirl in the end. The arm does not swing in my throw as it does with the tennis racket.
Can you provide any more explanation of your realization here? As always, the video is a little cryptic and I'm not certain what kinds of details I should be looking for.
Just try it out with with a racket of some sort. Or swing a hammer. You'll notice that you need to rotate your shoulder and your arm internally(counter clockwise). For me that feels like I'm twisting my right nipple towards the spine. Eventually everything will turn when you do that. The key for my realization is that the shoulder needs full rotational range of motion if you want the arm to swing freely like Roger and Garrett do .
See how Garret starts with his palm facing down towards the ground and ends up the opposite way palm facing the sky. Thats the rotational range of motion you need. The shoulder rotates from closed to open. And if throw without internally rotating the arm you will get hurt.
I think in disc this may also aid in getting the nose down? Pronating the forearm at the hit to bring the back of the disc around and down to become the “nose”?
2 handed tennis backhand the swing axis is between the shoulders. One handed the axis is closer to front leg w the left side counterbalance the swing. Federer's left side counters the swing. I think sb22 swing axis being closer to the front leg. Sb22 one leg drill is hard for me but makes more sense in this context th-cam.com/video/Mpp7ZFLHK90/w-d-xo.html

Oh yeah. Always need more Fed in my life
Usually a 2 hander but I'll try to feel this out, cool video
