Here is the link for the Gwynn analysis of Bonds' swing. Be sure to hit the link that brings up the frame by frame analysis.

Breaking the sequence up is a good alternative to watching the entire swing. 60fps is fun, 30fps is ok, but if you have a good idea what your looking at you can draw some conclusions from a few frames or pictures.

If you have a good clip from early on in the sequence, cutting frames is a good alternative to seeing some of the dynamics without having a kinetic printout.

The main # for the Giants public relations is 415-972-2800. I got one as a gift, so they may give you the # for the Giants Dugout store.
