Yeah so with MCMAP the ankle flare was actually with the rear foot so now that I think about it my method was a bit different. In retrospect, I should have stepped with the opposite leg and torqued with the other for maximum effect.
I mean the twist probably helped despite the error and my having Ehlers Danlos hyper mobility probably helped my not feeling pain from it. 😉
Confident my next set of throws is going to be even better! Thanks, @sunlit7!
