This image is of his very first 2 turns in the video as suggested.
Here's what I see:
Frame #1 - He looks extended too early.
Frame #2 - Now, however, his stance leg is flexed...? So he's flexing at the end of the turn?
Frame #3 - Seems like a bit of an "up" move instead of staying flexed. It seems to lead into his extension of the next turn. Maybe this is being hyper-critical?
Frame #4 - Same as #1 where the stance leg appears to be extended
Frame #5 - Now the stance is beginning to flex
Frame #6 - Seems like the same as #2 where he's flexed at the end of the turn.
So, to my eye, this is the opposite of PMTS where we remain flexed and build pressure through the turn and whatever extension occurs is at the end of the turn just before release.
