I was reading a post from CJ Wiley (I assume it's actually him writing it) on AZ site about stroke and wrist and he made mention of SVB's wrist and the "cocking down" of the wrist.I try to use a loose grip, but it is not automatic and the harder the shot the more likely I am to tighten up. I often concentrate on the loose grip when attempting a bank that looks like it has a kiss in it. Per Freddy's book, an extreme loose grip on these shots helps speed up the cue ball and helps avoid the kiss.
I agree about the Filippinos. They move the cue ball around with what seems minimum effort.

"The way I play is definitely with the wrists cocking down as I contact the cue ball. I have been committed to this technique the last couple of days and it's amazing the results. The thing about my technique is I can pre cock my wrists very precisely and that was how I consistently produce powerful stoke shots with such accuracy. This, ironically is what I've been struggling with the most. I seemed to have lost my "power source" that effortlessly produced pin point accuracy when striking the cue ball."
This is more prominent in OnePocket and I wondered if there is anything to gain either way ...
