That Mark Rippetoe deadlift vid has helped a lot, I'm doing much better now that I am more aware of the positions of my chest and tail bone.
But the video is less specific about the retreat move. Can someone talk me trough, step-by-step, how I get down from the standing up position to resting the bar on the floor?

Ehm that depends...not being flippant here.
Bumper plates and a deadlift platform means some people just drop it.
But proper competition form means you need to hold it all the way down.I just bend forward keeping my lower back flat that's it really... :)
