Jreeder when I video a pickoff I like to be in the direction the ball is thrown at. It appears that 1st base is offto my left. It appears your hips are aimed (front Side towards 1st. Again the video is hard to get a good perspective.
when you are at the top of your lift theknee should wrap back a bit bringing foot to same plane as leg on rubber. That allows you to step towards 1st with more power. To be really deceptive at a high level you don't need a bullet as a LHP for the PO. You do have to have some steam behind it. That will come but I think you could get more pop if you did the above. You are throwing with your arm and little behind it. All young pitchers are a work in progress.
Yes the parents do get upset but thats a good thing.
