Should i move up a pole or move back to 6 lefts. I am currently doing 5 lefts.
When i hold higher than my current grip, the pole feels as if it sinks and is too soft.

Any comments and advice would be appreciated.

Same grip, same pole, higher takeoff and more complete swing. Continue to improve.
Move back to 12 step and keep the pole up thru the first 6 steps.
