Flag Pull

Stage: Beginner
Stage Characteristics: Being very agile, having good foot work, having good "juke" moves, being able to read the opponent.
What to change: First, the guy in the black should have stepped out of the way so the camera man could have had a better shot. Second, when the guy breaks down in the beginning, he stands too tall. He also "hops" when he tries to chase the girl with the ball; he is more likely to miss the girl's flag when hoping. Lastly, his feet come together at one point. By doing this, he has no power and no balance.
Cues: "Stay Square", "Don't click your feet"
