  • @Morgansmash94 he is probably talking about left drag turn

  • I have no idea what the hell this guy is talking about... I've never heard any band, corps or military use terms like "Left Drag"... Anyone care to enlighten me?

  • lol this is a pointless video.... the point of the title is to teach ppl isnt it? lol u just talk about things regular band members would know without watching this video...
