One of my client's Sam, (who still can't gain any weight, ughh!) just got himself a 85KG 10 second snatch (It never ends up to be 10 seconds). I wanna share this as Sam's 1RM is 95KG and despite the minor imperfection in how he caught it, I really like this lift. I use slow snatches for lifters who; 1. Yank the bar off the floor 2. Can't hold their positions properly (Butt raises too early) 3. Are lazy 4. As a great supplementary to those who keep wanting to go heavy with crap technique. Make them do these, it instantly drops their numbers by sometimes, up to 50%. Kid you not. 5. Doing things slow, really forces the brain to learn these movements and drill it in. It also keeps the movements/muscles strong, and not tense. IF you want to know the difference between tense movements VS strong movements, look at an amateur drummer trying to roll fast, VS an experienced one.
