Hi Lasse
Gordy was kind enough to provide me with the corresponding files. I do knot know exactly the video sources.
In your case it is a cast from right to left with a marker on the line, close to rod tip.

This is because Lasse has long legs and short arns. We measured our respective reach a few years ago and discovered I was a baboon.

I also have short legs dude
I was just curious about measuring, even for a baboon Paul hasn't got a meter more reach, so I was thinking it might have been a cast with a significant step or steps...
How do they compare if we use FFI definition for stroke length
Cheers

Hi Daniel
Which of the hand paths did you use? Do you know if anybody checked to see if Paul was a throwback?

Start to finish 2 1/4m sounds right to me (includes Slide). It’s Lasse’s cast that is the surprising one.

I used a model of Paul's hand path, but the comparison is difficult since I cannot exactly tell when the translation and the rotation starts for Lasse's cast. For Paul rotation starts at about 1 meter from the origin in the x direction.
It is interesting to see how we can speculate on something for which information is still lacking. It could be like that:

It can’t be that one Lasse. Whatever produced your graph had tiny T-Rex arms
