check out the 2008 International H.S. HR Derby promo on "youtube". Type 2008 power showcase promo...enjoy! The top 60 high school power hitters in the world will step center stage on January 5th, 2008. The 2nd Annual International H.S. HR Derby will be held in the newly renovated Tropicana Field. Take a trip down (be my guest) and shagg in the outfield.

Power hitters hit off of their back leg. There is no other way to hit long fly balls (go watch some home run hitters, trust me). I think this kid's stance is ok. He just seems a little unready for the pitch.
first of all, if you are going to criticize others on the internet, at least be correct. Stance is the least important factor in hitting, the final position matters (and this kid has it). Power hitters are supposed to finish with most of their weight distributed to their back leg (60% back, 40% foreward). This kids swing is fine, hence he is in a showcase hr derby!
he's ok

I have no qualms with his batting, though a tripod would have been appreciated.
