I own this, its great for everything except cleans and snatches. It has to do with the shape of the kettlebell in relation to the handle. When you do a clean/snatch, you can't comfortably keep your wrist locked and straight when gripping the handle. If you try keep it straight, the top edge of the kettlebell near where the turn knob is will dig into the back of your wrist. I've tried lots of times and there's no way to get the kettlebell to come down comfortably with good form.
That sucks because clean snatches are important.Windyt wrote: ↑ I own this, its great for everything except cleans and snatches.

So would you buy it again, or do you find cleans and snatches (I just realized what @ryan0462 did there..lol) are too critical?Windyt wrote: ↑ I own this, its great for everything except cleans and snatches.
