[@jennscites4023]

Sophia Hopkins ahhhh! that’s literally so awesome! i’m so proud of you! i started colorguard for the very first time three days ago hahha

[@sophiahopkins6344]

peanut nutter omg yay!! joining the color guard was the best decision i’ve ever made- you’re going to love it! i’m so excited for you! :)

[@jennscites4023]

Sophia Hopkins ahhh that means so much! i’m really excited but i’m getting super frustrated haha

[@randomcrap4230]

ok...that was seriously the most beautiful and intricate solo I have ever seen in my life. Amazing!

[@shamina2000]

YOUR ROUITNE IS ABSOULELY STUNNING!! I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN THAT..

[@Hope-si1kb]

Me too. We don't have a choreographer/coach at my school. The kids do choreograph everything.

[@cndiy5371]

same

[@avahess5347]

The fact that he has such complete trust in his flag and his body astounds me. I want to grow a bond with my flag like he has with his one day.

[@quennarichburg7604]

You need to do a step by step video for this flag work I would love to learn it 😀

[@509draglegends9]

oh my lord this is the definition of a beautiful performance

[@kiaratucker8786]

This is the most beautiful flag solo I have ever seen. Everything flowed together so nicely. I hope I can become that good one day.

[@Floriapenguin]

I come back to this video all the time, it's my favorite solo ever

[@izzysvlogs8767]

What a flawless performance kudos to you I’m planning on taking color guard next year as a freshman

[@tierratiara2950]

Omg that was absolute perfection. So graceful elegant wonderful beautiful idk how many other adjectives I could use. Is there a step by step because I'd be down.

[@kalelkitty9529]

Every time I watch Color guard videos I always end up on this one, and at the end I just get chills every time

[@haileylong7795]

I hope I can be at this level someday I’ve just started color guard this year though but hopefully in a few years

[@JT-gc6gw]

I was thinking about crying

[@katiesimpson7982]

You make this look so effortless. It's beautiful!

[@Singe.]

ok when i first heard of color guard i was like really waving a bunch a flags around dumb but now i’m 2938378282% sorry for every doubting it this was beautiful

[@professorluiz9506]

That’s so wonderful! You and your flag seems to be only one person! It’s just perfect how it interacts to you! Congratulations from Brazil!

[@jeffreystafford57]

Me only being in colorgard for one season and thinking I could choreograph shows. Then comes across this video and realizes how am I ever going to get that good.

[@niahughes8062]

I wish you had more guard videos. This is helping me a lot with my audition.

[@Bluprint_Husky]

I hope that one day I can become as skilled as you, man. I just joined my high school's colorguard, (haven't even got equipment yet) and this inspired me even more to commit to it!

[@Bluprint_Husky]

UPDATE: I have graduated high school, and now have 3 years of experience in flag and one year in rifle. Currently working towards auditioning for a DCI corps in 2021 :)

[@kadrianbarnett2052]

Bluprint_Husky Wow!!!

[@jocelynrangel7204]

was it hard at first im going to be a freshman next year and were picking classes but i dont know if i should chose colorgaurd

[@Bluprint_Husky]

@@jocelynrangel7204 You should definitely join! It was hard at first, but so is every other sport and competitive art. It's really rewarding as well, so I you should totally sign up!

[@aki4357]

@@Bluprint_Husky HOW WAS IT?? :D

[@amandavogel7649]

absolutely beautiful you should make some kind of tutorial for some of the tricks i would really love to learn some!!

[@awsomesara1]

This is so elegant and effortless. Wow

[@leslieann3226]

WOW I'm honestly in awe that was gorgeous and so beautifully performed.

[@Unknown-jj6gp]

Omg that was so beautiful. It just all flowed together so perfectly omg

[@madik4574]

I haven’t even joined guard yet, auditions are in two weeks. I am not skilled by any means, but I just came here to commend you on this beautiful solo. The way your body flowed with the flag was phenomenal.

[@Mel-rl3dd]

It’s literally perfection I wish I will become this amazing

[@susanhearn8178]

This performance is more graceful then i will ever be. It is just completely stunning and i hope to achieve this level someday. It is only too bed mentioning the fact that I've only been in guard for a year now. But this work is just amazing and would love to learn this routine someday.

[@randomlibra]

I am teaching a young guard now and I want to show them this right now! This is gorgeous!!!

[@mosiacsoml]

You put so much passion into this and it reminds me of why I joined in the first place

[@maddieaddair6101]

that is so amazing and beautiful ive been doing guard for 4 years now and im in 8th grade i hope I get to be as good as you

[@adeolaadebanjo5080]

That was so effortless and beautiful

[@angela-nu3mq]

Would it be okay if I used the beginning flag work ( where you wrapped the silk around you and then unraveled it) in my solo? If not, I completely understand it just looks amazing

[@kalebosborn9435]

Using a move that somebody else made up should be completely okay, as it can help you be the guardist that you aspire to be.

[@alliegendron8853]

This literally made me cry this was AMAZING

[@clayslayyy]

bruh this is my science teacher now 😂

[@darthplagueisthewise6832]

oh my god, this was nothing short of a perfect audition

[@faylisacaldwell5785]

Amazing! So effortless!

[@XmnA-gd1xo]

My love for colorguard started with this video. It's been almost 5-6 years now.

[@tiffanypeed258]

So fluid, love it, I need to learn this flag work

[@lindsayvictoria3239]

Spin guard boy, spin! You're incredible!

[@qtippyyy]

You make it look so easy but wow I'm so shook rn!!! Niceeeeee

[@GeorgeBreeze]

this just gave me life.

[@christophermering6896]

I can only dream abt doing this. This is way sooo smoothhhh😭😭

[@brandong1980]

What are your weights?? Your tosses are beautiful!

[@christianluke5176]

+Brandon G Sorry such a late reply, but I think for that flag I had a 1 inch bolt at the bottom and a 3 inch bolt at the top!(:

[@keylagarcia9609]

+Christian Luke I figured out some of the moves from the beginning, but where you wrap up the flag it is very difficult to see what you're doing especially because it is very fast. I know I'm very late on this haha but it would be amazing from tour part if you could do a step by step of it :) thank!

[@keylagarcia9609]

+Key Garcia from 0:18 to 0:50 to be specific 😊

[@juliamigliore5418]

[@misha221b5]

this is insane

[@zacsjoberg]

Very Impressive!

[@brayleebrown6018]

I wish I looked this good

[@rarnayro]

OK...as intricate as this is (it's really really good btw) can a DCI color guard / visual judge really see all of that from the upper box or from the field AND can 30 guard people really do this in a show?

[@themysticpyro5671]

Better than anything I could ever do with a flag

[@jamesgifford8291]

[@bennettknox137]
