Update:
We are prepping our bots for the race and fighting in Robogames by initializing dynamic walking (ability for turning while walking forward, etc.). While the walk does shuffle a little, this is mostly because it is meant as our combat walk, keeping both feet as close to the ground as possible.

Nice! How is the turning w/ walking achieved?
We have the robot shift weight dynamically from a standard forward walk (or back walk) to cause a turn. This variance also affects side-steps (weight shift to cause turning) - essentially elongating the stride length.
Oro, Zog’s brother robot, is capable of doing the same walk, while shifting his weight forward as well as side to side - making him capable of walking up an incline plane:
note: Zog is also capable of shifting his weight forward while walking, it just isn’t apparent or required while on a flat surface.
I’ve read about these guys in Robot mag
apparently they may try for Robo-One which would be awesome,seeing that they’ll be the first team from the US to enter if i’m correct.
Thanks, I appreciate the comments 
Our plan right now is indeed to go to Robo-One, but we wouldn’t be the first from the U.S. - Matt Bauer went about a year ago, unfortunately he was not able to qualify fully once he got over there - and thus could not compete.
Here is a prep match before RoboGames: Oro vs. Zog - practice
