I somehow have always equated them the dynamic Olympic lifts, and I really enjoy the swing and the snatch (
not so the long cycle though). They're also really invaluable for repetitive explosive movements - quite unique in that there aren't many other tools which allow you do the same ballistic moves in the same way.
