    Comments welcome on 16yo DD pitch.

    16 yo DD has come a long way. Just a quick side video for comments on stride take-off, opening/closing. I wish the camera did better for slow motion but is what it is. I didn't have time to get multi-angle views but will work on that next weekend. Thanks...
