Flowing at Speed
Flow recorded rounds at faster playback speeds (1x, 1.25x, 1.5x) so your shorthand can keep up with the fastest speakers you’ll face.
Find a recorded PF round online. Flow the first constructive at normal speed, using columns and your shorthand system. Check your flow against the speech: did you get every claim and warrant, or only the claims?
Re-flow the same speech at 1.25x, then a new speech at 1.5x. Your handwriting will get worse, and that’s fine. What has to survive is the argument order, the warrants, and the numbers.
Finish by giving a one-minute response using only your 1.5x flow. If you can respond from it, your flow works. Build your shorthand on purpose: arrows for causation, delta for change, a box for impacts, question marks for things to press in crossfire.
Variations
Numbers only
Flow a speech and get every statistic and source name right, even if you drop other content. Precise evidence on your flow wins exchanges.
