  Fix integers $d \geq 2$ and $k\geq d-1$. Consider a random walk $X_0, X_1,
\ldots$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in which, given $X_0, X_1, \ldots, X_n$ ($n \geq k$),
the next step $X_{n+1}$ is uniformly distributed on the unit ball centred at
$X_n$, but conditioned that the line segment from $X_n$ to $X_{n+1}$ intersects
the convex hull of $\{0, X_{n-k}, \ldots, X_n\}$ only at $X_n$. For $k =
\infty$ this is a version of the model introduced by Angel et al., which is
conjectured to be ballistic, i.e., to have a limiting speed and a limiting
direction. We establish ballisticity for the finite-$k$ model, and comment on
some open problems. In the case where $d=2$ and $k=1$, we obtain the limiting
speed explicitly: it is $8/(9\pi^2)$.
