Terrific. Over the weekend I was at the Australian Senior National WL competition. Being jr coach I had the opportunity to rub shoulders with national level (and above) coaches & chatted with about technique. Some of those chaps have forgotten more about technique than I'll ever learn!

I have a lot of respect for Tommy.

Did you mean by "look at the blackboard", to have us recall these drawings?

They look very familiar to me.
