Scorcher, i think ur mistaking Romanian Deads for Sumo Deads.

Romanian Deads are a lot like Stiff Leg deads. they differ in the fact that with romanian deads u have to start with the bar at the top (which means u have to take it off the rack - it cant be done from the floor) and u lower the bar while bending ur legs (at the knees) just a tad bit. so its not really an SLDL where ur knees are locked - they have to bent only slightly. this makes the hamstrings get hit harder. i prefer Romanian deads to SLDLs. another variation is the keystone deadlift which is more or less a Romanian Deadlift with lesser ROM allowing u to overload the hamstrings. i have found these to be fantastic.

i will try to hunt for some good Romanian Deadlift Videos.
