Convertible top catches mid closing C70 2004

My 2004 V70 convertible top seems to catch on the right side as it closes. When the roof is at about mid-closure the right side very suddenly "pops" loudly and comes down hard and then finishes closing normally. The catch/pop/noise seems to happen when the front portion of the roof is unfolding and is approximately straight up. Upon examining the mechanism I don't see an obvious reason why the roof would get hung up briefly causing the roof to snap forward. Any thoughts or recommendations? Thank you!!
