I've already been picking up on that a little. Some cues just don't penetrate. Some people just do it damn near perfectly after a brief introduction and a set or two. I'll try to just keep focusing on what I have in front of me. As for the Technique forum, I did spend a bit of time in there. I started off pretty poorly, but an ass chewing by Simma and a few months later I got better. Now, I try not to butt in if a coach is already on it (where do you people find the time?). A few times where coaches chimed in with "what he said" really felt good. I'll have to get involved again more heavily. Sometimes, it does feel like I'm a broken record because people make the same mistakes. Sometimes, it makes me second guess that I'm getting the diagnosis of their form correct. Maybe that's just something I'll have to get used to if I'm a coach.
Thank you everyone, again, for you input.
