Wrist snap. My daughter player modified for the first time this season as a 7th grader and really took to pitching, just with no whip or snap. She found a ton of success simply under handing it. But I’ve been trying to teach her to whip it now she’s gearing for her first travel tryout and I think this video will help amazingly.

@@plusultrapitching thank u! but i’m pretty upset with the first game though because i kept forgetting to follow through so my pitches would go high, so they would steal home, but in the 2 inning my dad reminded me to follow all the way through and i was striking them out!

@doctodd6755 6 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for this my pitchers have been struggling with the snap they believe they have to push the ball out of their hand because their moms told them that’s how to prevent injuries. You’re the best this will come in handy for my lady slingers!

Whenever I’m doing my full wind up I find it hard to find when to wrist snap and follow through it feels like I’m hesitant to follow through once I wrist snap, or I would find my self not wrist snapping and just following through . Any tips on to put those two together ?

@plusultrapitching 2 ай бұрын

Great question. And one I also struggled with when working on a long follow through. The best way I’ve found is to pause at the snap next to your hip and feel that position. Then, do the same thing and add a follow-through. Finally, try to smooth them together

Wrist snap. If you flex the wrist back duringvthe wind up it creates more spin on release but nobodybteaches this how come?

@plusultrapitching 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for your question! I can’t speak for every coach out there, but I can speak for myself… I don’t teach to flex the wrist back because it puts the joint in an more tense position, which may lead to injuries down the line. It also doesn’t necessarily help with the way I teach to snap the ball, starting with your palm facing up in Power K position. I hope this helps! 💪🏼🥎

@jwneucere 4 ай бұрын

@@plusultrapitching Ive wondered about curling the wrist as well. Noticed that alot of pitchers from the west coast seem to do this and felt it helps with spin as well but daughter was recently told by our pitching coach not to do this bc she wants her to have an extremely loose arm. I can see how it could put undue stress on the joint though.

@plusultrapitching 4 ай бұрын

You definitely want your arm to be loose when you pitch! I’m not sure I am properly picture the release you’re talking about, but you’re welcome to send me an email and discuss there!
