Grip and Platform

* Grip: thumbs together, even and flat. Rotate wrists out so they are as flat as possible.

* Externally rotate elbows out and as close together as possible, thumbs should point down. Shoulders should be rolled forward. Elbows will be fully extended (not bent).

* You want to comfortably get your forearms as close to each other as possible. Here are 3 different platforms. Depending on your individual anatomy, you may or may not be able to get your forearms together. Here you see a progression, with the most desireable platform at the far right (although all 3 girls are outstanding passers!).
