Release of wrist hinge

in the youtube-video from 7/8th august you explained to hold the hinge till the shaft is parallel to the ground and the left hand is near to the left knee. At this point we have to unhinge the wrist.

Is this an active movement ?

For me it feels like being active. I tried this with a half-swing and it felt great and powerful.

I ask because I want to be sure going the right way before bringing the active unhinging in the full-swing. I ever tought that unhinging does not need an additional move of the wrist.
