3x6x95 = 1710, but that video was really great in trying to get my technique right. i got a lot to catch up with...
Technique is highly individualistic based upon bone structure and natural muscle group strengths and weaknesses. Type of lifting suit (if used) adds another element to the equation as well.
Many armchair experts would say my hips are to high, my legs to straight, and my back is to rounded - lol.
As far as I'm concerned, if you pull the bar so it scraps the legs from the knee up (use baby powder), and you've fully locked the weight out (shoulders back, knees straight) in a single fluid motion (no hitching) - you've done it right
The video's that inspire me:
