Hi there!
I am new to S&S and have some issues with my swing technique. I've read a lot of stuff (mainly from Pavel and this forum) and watched a couple of videos (like Delaine Ross' tutorials) and I try to incorporate all of the helpful cues. My technique has already gotten a lot better. Yet a couple of issues remain.
Here is a video of a mediocre set with a 16 kg KB:

And some stills from the same set
Stills 1-3: My downswing phase seems ok to me (plank and hike). Maybe hinge a little later?
Still 4: This is my main issue: My knees move forward for a millisecond when I initiate the upswing with my hips.
Still 5: On some reps I seem to lean back from the hips, arching my back.
I have tried a couple of different clues but I just can't stop the knee movement in the upswing.
What are your observations? Do you have any suggestions for me?
Thank you
