The Glide
Its not a hop! Hopping causes the thrower to “crash” on the right
leg
Hopping makes the shot go up & down, not linear
It’s a glIde! Slow to fast gradual acceleration across the circle
Unseat & Left leg the key.
Goal is to land in an effective power position and put the shot

Right Leg Sweep - Becca seems to kick the left leg up and left. The kick up is to help her get off the right foot and get to the middle. This is a common leg strength issue in younger throwers. Wanless is in a good "A" position and is much lower. Becca does keep her shoulders closed to the throwing sector, this is good.
