Hi Rick. Looks like you are a bit cockeyed on the seat--shifted over to the right. I wonder if you started that way, or if you lost contact with the seat at some point during a drive phase. Happens to me sometimes if I push hard at high stroke rates.

How are things?

Hi Jim,

Things are OK. Thanks.

I do tend to get twisted about. When I push evenly with the legs everything from the hips up shift around. My chiropractors have constantly tried to adjust out a pelvic tilt that I have both left-to-right and front to back. I'm thinking of trying a thicker-soled right shoe along with a thin-soled left, although I'm afraid that it might worsen the problem if my body settles into that arrangement. :?

Heat 3. Yvette Knight winning the Women's 60+. The handle looks straight and level even though the shoulders have a similar lean to the "starboard side" as I do. We wouldn't do well in a pair. :D
