Doug! I missed you at the RKC cert. Definitely looking at this video now makes me want to re-do this!
I worked on my technique a little, and by sheer brute force of conditioning was able to pass the snatch test. After the weekend, and working on technique, I imagine the next time I take the test I won't be hurting as much :)
i was doing the same thing and my RKC instructor said that i that i needed to snap my hips more and tame the arc a little better, but mainly the hip snap.
i'll be doing the 5min test on Sunday and i'm really going to focus on getting that hip snap.
i'll let you know how it goes.
good luck with the training. look'n forward to meeting you in San Jose

hey bro,
i'm going to the San Jose RKC as well. i can't wait dude.
anyway, i'm only saying this b/c i'm working with a Sr. RKC and he made the same critiques about my snatch form and maybe it'll help you with yours.
watch the vid again and you'll see that your heels come off the ground a few times.
