Be careful with the 'no flap take-off with a dump of flap as you rotate technique' on soft ground as the take off run may be longer. With no flap you will have less drag so in theory will accelerate quicker but the reduction in lift keeps you 'running uphill' on the soft ground therefore increasing the take off run.
