OK I know there are lots of threads with info regarding the balance arm. The analysis video, all of our videos, conversations, questions, etc. But here's my question....
Everything I see/read indicates to keep your thumb down, palm facing backwards, and arm out and a bit behind your body - your body should find the "natural" balance point. OK I have most of that down, except the thumb down, palm back....how in the heck do you accomplish this? I seem to be able to perform this one out of ten times. What's the secret to getting the thumb down? It feels so awkward and my arm doesn't even want to turn that way. Suggestions on how to accomplish this...or practice/exercise to accomplish this?
