new clean technique
starts with snatch grip and switches to narrow group for the catch

Apparently she does it so the pull gets the bar higher... something along that line

Thats crazy, I would think u'd lose a sense of bar awareness as ur dropping and sliding ur hands inward. its definitely different, thats for sure.

what would u guys think it would do for consistency of the lifts, if both lifts are using similar grips off the floor, do u think it would help with consistency?

I was wondering if she was a good snatcher and then of course at the end we see world record weights. The biggest problem I see is that while you get more height on the clean pull, you also loose out on strength. We all know we can clean pull more than we can snatch pull and it's like she is turning her clean pull into a snatch pull. I mean it looks like she is gonna snatch that weight until she catches it with the narror grip for the clean. I imagine that her snatch is so good because she also pulls like that for the clean. It may be something where she had such a great snatch but a weak clean so they try getting some component of that great snatch worked into her clean. I remember a lifter at Red Wing that could snatch 130ish but could only C&J 140ish. Sometimes he would miss clean and jerks and the coach would jokingly tell him that he should just snatch it.

If you can pull it higher you don't have to be quite as fast with the pull either. when you stand up with a snatch pull it's already as high as is needed to catch for a clean, so you would need very little pop off the hips to keep it that higher long enough to get under the bar. (just my thoughts)

Simon, that is a great post. I agree, yet, she defies logic haha. Ya know? Obviously she's just KILLING it by doing that. I am honestly shocked by the technique. It is awesome though. So graceful. It just seems to occur organically. LOL
