Awesome stuff! Things I saw: *LINK*

Ingrid Marcum's shrug starts before the finish of the second pull and continues into the start of the pull under. So the first part of the shrug put elevation and momentum on the bar, the second half help pull her under the bar. It's something I suspected in the past but you can't see that at 30 frames per second!

She doesn't get her shoulders over the bar until after the plates have cleared from the ground. Again, hard to see at 30fps but at 300fps you can see exactly when that happens.

She kicks her hips into the bar. Even the lighter weights looked liked they got pushed out a bit in front.

Natalie bends her arms early.

Good stuff Benn! More! Would love to see a variety of angles, especially 3/4 and some from overhead if possible.
