Credit card in glove drill for wrist at top

To check whether the lead wrist is cupping at the top, the instructor slots a credit card inside the glove against the wrist and closes the glove. At setup you feel only slight pressure from the natural hinge; when you bend and cup the wrist, the card pushes hard into the wrist, giving instant feedback that you have cupped it. He calls the card pressure the feedback.

Try it

  1. Take your credit card. Open your glove.
  2. Just simply slot it just inside the glove here like this and close the glove off.
  3. When they're bending and cupping this wrist, I can immediately feel the pressure of that card pushing into my wrist. This is the feedback.
