Zach's pivot may be responding to intent, the intent does not appear to be a wrist throw. Additionally, Zach uses alot of lower body action. Looks like he swings that board a long way.
This is simply a Turned Shoulder Plane, left arm Swing in which the right shoulder drives PP#3 through impact, and even though the right forearm is perfectly on the sweetspot plane at impact at 0:37, and on the DS, his shoulder and hip rotation start simultaneously, it is not a right arm swing. .
What we see versus what we feel... It looks like a simple turned shoulder plane with thrust downplane by the shoulders. Mike Bender says he is firing his arms at beginning of downswing.... Video doesn't tell the whole truth...
I believe you have that wrong about the basic plane. Zach's swinging on an Elbow basic plane not a turned shoulder basic plane. Trust me, the downstroke is the same as Tomasello's arm action, just watch Tommy's Chapter Series video on Swinging and Hitting. I believe it's last chapter series video. Now Tommy is swinging on s turned shoulder plane with a Straight Line delivery path. Zach's swinging on an Angled delivery path.

I put a straight edge through the right elbow and the ball, and lo and behold, the sweet spot traveled right down that line! You are right DG.

Just what arm muscles is he firing at the Top? His right shoulder and hands start moving simultaneously from the Top, and the right elbow retains it's bend, so it isn't the right triceps.

Forearm muscles!!! See 6-B-2-0, Homer got it right. Also see 1-F, the Right Forearm is always driving!!!
