what you want to do is explode both of your hands up at the same time while not locking out your bottom arm. however the explosions only for a split second and then your bottom arm should by collapsing into the pole and you should be able to rotate a lot further back (if you have a good knee and trail leg). rope drills help with this a ton. hope this helps.
