She is so wide that in the last swing she actually negative strides. Would love to see her narrow up some and positive stride.

I agree the wider stances can be very tough for younger players. I've experienced it with my DD

It is easier to stay closed when positive striding. I haven’t done any data research into this, but I feel like most all pros positive stride. Very few as wide as the DD here.

I think it can be, if the timing of the upper and lower are in sync

Maybe but from my unscientific survey of 10u-14u kids over the last 5 or so years many have difficulty with this positive stride or not…lol.
Sitting at stance hinders adjustability. It’s comfortable. Feels strong. it’s inviting. It strangles our lower half.
Game swing. Still not really finishing, but she hit the ball hard all day.
I think the swing can be more sudden. The hands TTB quickly, not later pre/post contact.

good job!
She had a great weekend, but this is probably the best swing (and finally a really good video angle). She's a little ahead of this one, but still a lot to like I think.
(p.s. anyone know how to change the title on a thread?)
