snatch and clean technique

[greenwell001]

I was watching the Olympic lifters doing their cleans and they would get really low just to get their clean. I typically done get past maybe 35 degrees with my knees when I do them. Granted, I don't put 405 on the rack either. I feel like I would completely lose my balance and injure myself doing it this way. What do your guys cleans look like.

I rarely do cleans, but if i do, I take it to 225. I feel stiff when I do it. I have some buddies who are into olympic lifting and they make it look smooth and easy.
