A.    Establish a challenging Hang Snatch + Snatch (hang snatch will be just below the knee, this is not TnG so on the full snatch focus on a strong sweep back off the floor: the purpose and focus on the hang snatch is to allow the bar to get to Position 1 when the torso is perfectly vertical with the heels still down)

95 x 2, 100 x 1- only did one attempt at 100, hit the hang, failed on the full.  Called it too early.
