Technique Faults - Bent Wrists

Bent wrists, as the name suggests, occurs when the user cocks the wrist either up or down. This can occur either in the catch position or the release position. The wrists should be flat and the fingers simply hooked over the handle.

Tips for correction include;

• Focus on drawing the handle to the second from bottom rib.

• Focus on keeping the elbows close to the body.

• Focus on keeping the forearm horizontal.

• Squeeze the shoulder blades together at the Release.
