HInging will for sure have its effects on the surface speed of the clubhead given any #3 angle but the clubhead for vertical is still moving faster than the hands given a flat left wrist , Rhythm.
The KEY to understanding this lies in 2-G paragraphs 6 and 7- mainly 7. Note that the BASIC plane -For each of the hinges- is important to understanding this concept. RHYTHM and VERTICAL to the BASIC plane associated with the chosen hinge. That produces the "ratio".
