Watch this latest BBG video.
The video is labeled "The new planes of golf have changed".
I have no idea what Brendon means by using that label - because there cannot be new planes of golf. There is a swingplane that has it base on the ball-target line and it cannot change if one wants to generate an in-to-square-to in clubhead path that a golfer will use to generate a straight ball flight.
LD states that Brendon's hand arc path/clubhead path is too straight post-impact, but that is due to the fact that Brendon has a tendency to "tumble" his clubshaft over-the-plane between P4 => P6 so that when he gets to P6 his clubshaft is not parallel to the ball-target line. He then swings out-to-in between P6 => P7.4.
The solution is to avoid that "tumble" tendency, which has always plagued Brendon's early-mid downswing action, but LD offers no advice on how Brendon should avoid that "tumble" tendency.

LD also recommends use of the reverse motorcycle move in the early downswing - and he states "that it is best to close the clubface when the club is traveling slower rather than when it is traveling faster". That LD-recommendation implies that the use of the reverse motorcycle move will decrease the amount of lead forearm supination that is needed during the PA#3 release action that happens between P6.5 => P7 (when the club is traveling at its fastest speed).However, LD is wrong - and use of the reverse motorcycle move between P4 => P6 (which usually closes the clubface by 20 - 30 degrees) does not decrease the amount of lead forearm supination required during a golfer's PA#3 release action because the reverse motorcycle's clubface-closing effect automatically/naturally dissipates between P6 => P7 when the lead wrist moves increasingly towards a biomechanical condition of ulnar-deviation. Brendon seems to be incapable of understanding that fact!
