Rained off from fishing again here
It came from a meta review of the topic, the measured parameters varied from study to study such that data could not be compared or compiled. This occurred if the studies objectives differed such as absolute performance vs injury prevention and rehabilitation.I am not sure what you mean by "any agreed-upon version of a definition". Does that refer to the biomechanical applicability of proximal to distal in general sport, just fly casting or is it a reference to something else.
Other than absolute rod hand speed, what mechanisms do you think should be considered?As to translating the mechanism to an audience it depends on the quality of the communication. It is simpler than some perceive.
No, I was considering a foundation type stroke.Do you mean the wrist rather than hand?

Thanks for that clarification, all research needs clear objectives and hypotheses.
In my view there are a few considerations. Individual joint linear and vertical velocities, angular velocity of specific segments, segment separation angles, normalised timings of each joint linear and angular velocities and muscle activity, are my important mechanisms. Absolute joint velocity is important, but so also is the relative sequencing of the maximum velocity attainment of joint and segment movement.
My apologies, but I do not understand what you mean by foundation type stroke.
