Default Power Snatches

I need to find a way to do power snatches outdoors. I have a grass lawn and gravel driveway. I am driving to decide if these would be dangerous on grass. Maybe I could build a sand pit to stand in.

I've trained on grass all my life. Barefoot no less.
I think you'll find your footing during your warm ups and be fine.

It will increase "BEAST" factor for sure!

Sorry...once again the title of the thread intrigued me.

For the record though, I'll have to agree with Wlfdg. The potential "BEAST" factor is enormous.

My only concern with grass is damaging the lawn. The sandpit might be more aesthetically pleasing.
