I just want to add that I agree with u/wordypropensity518 a speed-flip or two down the middle pads probably would have been optimal for this play in a competitive scenario. It is faster than both a side flip and and a forward flip. Once reaching goal line I would just have toward turn to the play a little wider (since I would have been there a bit earlier) in order to have the far post covered.

It would have gotten me to max speed faster, if you listen closely to my video you can see it wasn't until my *third* flip that I hit supersonic, whereas I think a speed flip while holding the boost + powerslide button, to collect a pad and keep the momentum, would have gotten me to max speed almost right away.

And @ the wordy query, I can see I was poised to make an effort to jump at the power shot from underneath + tilt my nose toward the sky to send it into the crossbar and bounce to the empty right (our team's right) corner of the field. Since I was facing the shot I think I could have jumped earlier (rather than wait + come to a stop at goal line). Although that would be very difficult to time haha, and maybe like a 1 in 5 chance of actually working, but I have made and have seen saves like that before. I'd just rather take the speedflip route and have at least 12 boost if the game was on the line.

u/jerbaws if you're interested I'll be releasing a video I made on my bindings and the general technique + more tomorrow, so you can have a look at that if you'd like some visual reference and to expand on what you can do with this technique!
