I make this mistake all the time and I justify it by saying the drag helps me keep tension. But if I place the flag foot smear higher, it will reduce drag, same tension, and improve hip momentum. I have a lot to learn. Thanks brah
hey, I'm glad it helped! that's actually a valid justification!! but the crux comes with differentiating between: 1) i intentionally drag my foot low as I latch the next sloper, as I want to keep my weight low and the drag helps me control the pull and not overpull my center of gravity too high 2) oh I didn't even know my feet was being dragged, but it helped, oh well! imo, if your conscious enough to fix the basic flags being too "inactive", you'll have the body awareness to drag the flag whenever necessary whereas if you don't have the awareness, the drag will hurt you more often than not
just looked up his video and he did make a great video on flags, for others that might want a more detailed explanation: th-cam.com/video/jMV2TYLN-_U/w-d-xo.html
