Kyle's strength isn't in strictly speed or parkour, but just mental accuity of always know where his chaser is and always moving into spaces where he has options. He also makes sure he's never TOO far ahead of the chaser in order to not get cut off in a manner he doesn't like. He literally slows down to bait a manageable distance from his chaser, then he maintains it. Great work!
he also dos a quick meditation and/or breathing exorcises during the break to regain his composure and breath. something with his already top level stamina alows him to go for even longer just as fast.
@@kevind3974 Yeah, that meditation thing is straight up Manga/Anime level witchcraft. "He's breathing slowly and moving his hands--that increases his recovery by at least 34.5%! His power level is back at 8000!"
@@WorldChaseTag We'll need an official term for that. If a "hat trick" is 3 points, maybe cycling the whole team should be a "hat show" xD or "team kill?"
Omg, did Kyle Soderman actually just pull off a 6 point streak and a chase at the beginning, unbelievable. He literally shattered the previous record by double, what a beast, he's certainly a force to be reckoned with.

The 6 point run by Kyle was very impressive but even more impressive is how easy he made it seem and how he always seemed to have complete control over the quad. He almost never had to go into a full sprint either. He will be an athlete to study for all future WCT athletes.
Everyone was afraid of his speed and never tried to just straight up chase him. They kept trying to cut in front of him. Big mistake, should've just sprinted straight at him and tire out Kyle much sooner.
Well I am the random viewer who just saw this because it was recommended by the algorithm for no reason, and from an outsider's perspective he really made it look easy. Like, to me it felt almost normal to evade the tag for 5-6 rounds.
Also props to Cian. As incredible as Kyle's run was, I was straight from rooting for HF to building up excitement for THC as the comeback was looming up.
Kyle is insane... not many teams have scored 6 points in a match, and he did it by himself, Tryhard had HF sweating for a second towards the end, getting those 3 evasions, respect to both teams, I hope to see Tryhard in future tournaments
Kyle and Mark for APK Gray are really defining what a top evader looks like. Calm, cool, and under control. They know where the chaser is at at all times and use varying speeds and pauses in their run to score the point.
Probably these videos are already post produced down to the final T. So probably down the line. Maybe the final or thereabouts. At the end of the day, isn't it better to pay respects to an athlete in the finals of his sport rather then a random round up to it?
How the hell has he not only smashed the record, but after initially tagging an opponent? He was on the quad for literally more than half of the match! Successful chase, then SIX evasions, then a final hoorah. Insane
Ok, someone told me something crazier than a 3-point run would happen. I thought maybe 4 evasions, but not 6 holy shit Soderman a beast. Edit: Six evasions should from now on be called a“Soderman”
Imagine when we get old and this sport becomes mainstream, we're gonna need to explain to our grandchildren why do we call six evasions a Soderman. And we show that kid this classic.
@@ekamjotsingh1804 Is Augustin a good evader? He's a scary fast chaser. I don't know the actual stats, but I don't have the impression that he's strong on evasions.
As always, major props to THC for hanging in there to snag those last few points! Amazing for them to score that high following that insane beginning performance with Kyle.
Imagine going through your entire team to tag one guy, *finally* getting him off the quad, celebration ensues, and then you remember that HWF have 5 other members. I don't even know how to describe Soderman's evading style, he just plays the quad really well and has tons of speed. It's not like he's using the quad in ways previously unbeknownst to the world, he's just *really good* at what he does. I am impressed by THC though. After Soderman got off the quad, they started playing really well. To come back 3 points in 6 chases is pretty impressive! They also didn't allow a single evasion from anyone else on HWF, and some of them are almost as dangerous as Kyle Soderman! That was truly insane to watch. The other teams in WCT had better hope Kyle used up everything he has on this match, because a well-rested Kyle Soderman is *not* who you want to face in the finals.
What's important to look at is how Soderman maintains his stamina. He doesn't exhaust himself in one evasion like how must runners do. Instead, he keeps an eye on his chaser and maintains just enough distance to avoid being tagged. Great performance, Kyle!
Would LOVE a video from Kieren, Dan, Marcus, and Greg breaking down that historic run by Soderman, it'd be great to watch them re-live that stunning performance
I just want to say that I was here watching history of this sport. When it becames more popular (maybe olimpic) people will comeback to see this double hat-trick. PS: You can use me as a I was here too button.
i can imagine people who have executed a double hat-trick in wct becoming an elite and exclusive class of runners, kinda like people who have a grand slam in tennis or something of that nature
I just started watching and just got awestruck, what a fantastic performance from that beast Kyle Soderman. 1 chase & 6 evasions consecutively 🙌. That's a number more than what some teams would have got in the group stage. Credit to THC for clinging onto it as long as they could. I mean I just don't have much words to describe the feeling, simply beautiful ❤️
Holy crap, Kyle SHOWED UP! I mean after that 6 point run the game was way more competitive. That grit and heart from THC to keep fighting after that blistering run was evident. Kudo's all around!
the winning of hollywood freerunners was highly anticipated but kyle's 6 points streak was just unbelievable......if he had used his pace only, he wouldnt score more than 3, but it was his mental strategies due to which he got that.
i wonder if the evaders are just way better this season or if a lot of players just struggle with chasing. there's been a lot more hat tricks than i ever remembered and now we have an insane six-evasion run from kyle, i know kyle was the star this match, but cian's evasion style was also very fun to watch, especially against some very fast chasers
I think it comes down to distance management. Kyle is a lot faster than he seems and baits chasers into approaches. Meanwhile, Jarrod relies on jukes/twitch reactions and picks more predictable loops around the quad banking that he can do it faster no matter how close the chaser gets. Jonathan is like a pure hiker +speed. I like the thoughtful distance management Approach as well as the juke style.
I want an interview with Kyle. I wonder actually how tired he was after the 8 chases, as his style doesn't seem to be too extraneous, as he likes to tip-toe around the quad rather then storm about.
This got into my recommendations and I loved it, but I actually did see Kyle on the Netflix show Beastmaster as well. He didnt win that one, but sure was among the best. Grest athlete!
Imagine if a runner would achieve to run a marathon in an hour (current world record 2h and a minute or so) That's what just happened in World Chase Tag. #Kyleshouldrunamarathon
Kyle is an absolute machine!!! All due props to Cian as well for fighting to the end and coming within a few seconds of a hat trick of his own. Definitely one for the books!
This was the most impressive performance I have ever seen in WCT by an athlete, top class! Congrats on making history Kyle Soderman :D Don't see this record being broken anytime soon! Just brilliant :)
Crazy start from soderman, but can we talk about how good mannered everyone is, I mean from one team to another there’s nothing but respect as all sports should be
What a comeback from THC! I was so certain we would only go to chase 10/11 after Soderman's wild 7-chase-run. I think THC weren't clever in not just running at Soderman after he showed exhaustion. However they (partly) made up for it with Cian's evasions!
Kyle killin it!! As always. For 13 months this was one of those seemingly unbreakable records. Kyle, and now Xavia, are two best in the game. Would love to see Hollywood Freerunners vs Breach!

Respect to THC. My mental would have been shattered after Kyle's 6 point run, but they stuck in and made a game of it.
Facts bro
It's insane to see a 6 consecutive point by Kyle, and see Omar still competing after that horrible injury he had, this team is crazy.
For sure, a team of beasts!!! For Omar to be compete again that morning after that fall is insane!!
yeah i'm feeling relieved Omar is back on track after that, look horrible.

We've also increased the EQ on the Quad in a few areas so this has probably contributed to the higher Evasion Rate.
