Don't get the squat jerk confused with the push (power) jerk:

The squat jerk goes all the way into the 'hole' (bottom squat position). The push, or power jerk, which is the technique used by Dimas during much of his career, involves only a rebending of the knees, although Dimas ocassionally got pretty close to thighs-parallel in successful attempts.
