That's some heavy weight for snatches. That must be quite the second pull followed by ducking under that weight. I use baby weights on that lift to learn technique. If you can do snatches for 300 lbs why not compete in Olympic lifting?

I found that I get the most out of my snatch by popping my hips right at the start of the second pull. Most people get the pull half way before they do that so they can't throw up heavy weights. Also, I don't think I'm anywhere near Olympic standards for weight lifting.
 
You're up there for Olympic lifts. If that's the route you are going I would find a gym that specializes in power lifting or a team. At 17 and at those weights you would have no problem finding someone interested in training you. Like anything some times you need some in person advice.

I've been trying to get my schools involved into Olympic lifting but there isn't a high interest in it. But, I have started looking at Olympic weight lifting trainers and i think I'll see what's up with all of that. Who knows, you might see me at the Olympics competing against some huge dudes!
