I'm assuming what's important is to keep the spine on the strop at all times and then find a grip and techinique that I'm comfortable with. I'm finding it seems a little easier for me if I pull up slightly on the strop (hook at waist level and pull to chest level) and stand along side the strop. Am I starting out with any bad technique habits or is that ok as long as I get good strokes.
Thanks again
