Hinge Action Question
Howdy again,

i understand ( I think ), the concept of the 3 types of hinge actions, vertical(club staying square with a feel of a clockwise/reverse roll), angled(no roll), horizontal(full roll) as brilliantly demonstrated in Yoda's videos.

MY understanding, if correct, is that..assuming i want to play say a horizontal hinge action...from impact, i can imagine a hinge-pin, stuck verically through my left shoulder....and my whole left-arm-flying wedge(and club of course)....is going to turn horizontally around this vertical hinge-pin.....just as a door does, giving the feel of a full roll.

However.... in Yoda's video's...he demonstrates this...with only the left hand on the club, swinging the left arm & club & wedge horizontally around, just like a door.... but...heres my problem.....


if i try to do this with BOTH hands on the club, as my lefthand & left arm(parts of my flying wedge assembly obviously) try to hinge horizontally around the vertical hinge-pin that is staked through my left shoulder.... as this moves....since the right hand is also on the club.....the right hand will move around too....and since my right arm is connected to my right hand....the right arm...will move HORIZONTALLY around....and so will my right shoulder. Doing the hinge with left arm only..is a snap....but.....doesnt trying to do that same horizontal-hinge movement with BOTH hands on the club mean that..instead of my body turning correctly around my spine it will be forced to somehow start to turn around the same vertical hinge-pin that im trying to make my left arm -wdge turn around? I cant see how you can have a left-arm-horizontal movement of the left arm(around the vertical pin in the left shoulder) without the left elbow breaking as you try to do it.

Any help gratefully received
