L-O-N-G Stride

StyleMismatch100+ posts

I've got a player (13) who has a very long stride. I've taken video of his swing and watched it in slow motion, other than the long stride his swing is very nice - immediately after foot plant he has good hip rotation, good balance, and so on. He's hitting well in BP also (haven't had a game yet), lots of line drives with decent power.

Any reason to try and 'fix' the stride?

(In this video clip his back foot slipped backward just after his follow through so it may appear his hips didn't rotate enough.)
