Okay, so he's just made contact and the cue ball has already hit the one and is hopping back... so he lifted the base of the stick as part of his motion to get the draw.

It looks like the tip is resting on the felt. With that much downward pressure on it, I'm wondering how he doesn't damage the felt.

Is his stroke so precise that there is no forward motion of the tip by the time it contacts the felt?
