Abstract
The invention relates to a device for learning and practicing a correct hip rotation in all types of sports, in particular a correct hip rotation for the execution of an efficient golf swing. The device is a continuous length of wire formed to constitute straight parts which form radially shaped first ends acting as a pointer and angled parts at a second end connected so as to enable fastening in the hip region with the pointer extending essentially radially to the longitudinal axis of the torso to make the rotation of the hips visible during the swing motion. The straight parts may be length adjustable.
Claims9
A device enabling a person to observe his hip rotation during the execution of a swing motion, said device comprising:
- a continuous length of wire formed so as to constitute first and second straight parts, first free ends of said straight parts enclosing an acute angle forming radially outer ends,
- angled parts at second ends of each of said first and second straight parts and a part connecting said angled parts,
- said angled and connecting parts enabling fastening in the hip region of the person by means of a belt so that the angled parts are aligned substantially parallel to a body axis of the person, said first and second straight parts form an arm which extends substantially perpendicular to the body axis,
- hip rotation being indicated by movement of said radially shaped end.
