Damn that was ugly. He basically straight leg deadlifted it.

    Pause at 38 and look at how extended and over the bar he is. Maybe that works for him, but that’s not exactly how people should snatch.

  I don’t see how it is ugly. His technique is different mainly due to the fact that his body structure is not what you usually see in weightlifting. He has long arms and long legs and somewhat of a short torso. Also, keep in mind that a 180kg snatch, at 94, is a shit load of weight (unless your name is A. Rybakov). Is his technique the norm? No. Is it ugly? No. Is it working for him? Yes.

    What the hell are you talking about? He has long legs, BUT- long tibias, short femurs- very advantageous for WL. lol
