I guess I've seen two versions of the random person kicking something. The first is the "I don't want to get hurt" (which I don't get the impression from the rest of the way your character acts, she walks too confident with bare feet to worry about hurting them when she kicks) or the "I don't know what I'm doing but I'm going to try anyway!" which usually ends up with people spinning out or falling over (neither of which is really good for the game).
Maybe add a bit of wobble or arm flapping/windmilling (to keep her balance) to make it more obvious she doesn't know what she's doing?
