I suspect that if you can sort out the left arm and as a result achieve a free take off you will be able to move up pole stiffness pretty dramatically. You have a very low differential at the moment.

At todays practice i managed to move my take-off point back about 10-20cm. And it was a whole different thing, the take-off was much easier and so the swing and everything was better. Still not good but some improvements. Also switched to 4.90/180/19,2 Spirit pole with 4.65 grip. the 175 got really soft. Still trying to figure out the left arm.

Take another look at the plant chapter in BTB - it may make a bit more sense now.
