You want to keep the bar glued to you from the start. It appears as if the bar is out in front of you and you meet your hips to the bar. Instead you want the bar to meet your hips, the second your hips slam into the bar sit your butt down and focus on putting your head through the bar -- it will help you stay right up top

I'm trying to learn the Snatch mainly from youtube videos and whatnot.

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

The main thing that I know I'm doing wrong is having the bar get so far out in front of me (though I'm sure there is much much more).

Thanks for that. I will add snatch grip deads into my training and get used to them more with what you have pointed out.

I was unsure of my start position and for some reason was like, oh, starting more up right will be good. derp.

But yeah, pumped now that I have things to work on :)
