Rope drill: pause at the top without losing speed

The speaker demonstrates a rope drill to build a pause at the top of the swing for flow. Swing up to the top, stop, and wait for the rope to fall on your back before getting through the ball. He says that when he tested a pause at the top with a radar device, the speed came out exactly the same, and hitting hard after the pause actually picked up his distance.
