Things I need To work on

After the tournament this weekend, here are things I want to work on personally.

- I find that if I can't get a huck off after one or two tries/fakes, then it is pointless to keep trying. I definitely throw better hucks after catching a flip and have some momentum going into it. I need to work on getting hucks thrown with a tough or straight up mark. I felt I did well on throwing break throws though. How do you move from throwing breaks to full-on hucks? The huck through a mark is essentially a huge break throw?

- Baiting D's. I got beat once on a scooter cut that I knew was coming, but I wasn't fast enough to get the D. Need to work on getting an extra step and a layout. I think I did well on other poaches, getting a D once and preventing some throws.
