If the right wrist bend does increase in the backswing, do you have to somewhat release it on the downswing to get back to flat at impact??

I've always been confused by this, as the Tom Tomasello video seems to indicate you should try to unbend the wrist, however, he states the pivot will not allow you unbend it too much.

For most folks, the right wrist should never be flat at impact (VJ is an exception to this recommendation). In fact it can be maintained in a bent position until well after impact. Keeping the left wrist flat and the right wrist bent before, during, and somewhat after impact seems to help me maximize compression which is a huge step in improving one's ball striking.
