Look into the hittest() function that works with Flash and Vector
members. Using that you can look at any pixel on the screen and see
if it has hit the sprite or not. By constantly modifying the
direction of the ball based on what's ahead of it, you can get some
interesting looking behavior. Here's something to show what's
possible:

In this you have control of the white triangle. Use the space bar to
speed up and the left and right arrow keys to steer.
