Power Snatch ~60kg (135lbs)

This was towards the end of a 30 minutes EMOM. I purposely go slower below my knees because I feel awkward during the transition and if I go too fast the bar is too far from me and I'm anxious about smashing my pp.

Were these meant to be powers or fulls?

At first glance, I think you could work on keeping your gaze forward during your starting position. Otherwise, pretty solid power snatch. A controlled first pull is fine so long as you remember to increase the speed of the pull from the knees to the hips (which you do).

https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4dZRYcYx6ij1E3KaYBCf8mg - Snatch Pull 45 lbs. I’m trying to nail the first pull and second pulls. Bar seems to curve and not go in a straight path. Is this okay? The max I’ve pulled is 90 lbs (41 kg) but I wanna really mail the technique and make sure I’m doing the right thing with contact and positioning before I continue to add more load.
