Sombrero Flick
The Hat
You lift the ball right over their head and run round to get it. It is called a hat because you put it on them.
Study holds every step and names it. Flow runs them together at speed. Space bar plays and pauses; arrow keys step one frame.

Watch out
- Flicking it flat, so it hits them.
- Watching the ball instead of running.
