    Tilted Axes, Spirals, and Dynamic Balance

    Maybe it's that, or they accommodate right and left hand throwers by recording a +/- data point.

    Tilted Axes, Spirals, and Dynamic Balance

    I'm definitely building new muscle and muscle memory as I go, but from the first times I filmed myself I recognize a primary issue is starting to uncoil before establishing brace. I don't watch Trebuchet enough to characterize his methods or contrast those with any other coach. I do recognize...

    Tilted Axes, Spirals, and Dynamic Balance

    To my way of learning, there is some gestalt where I'm trying to arrive, so too much focus on the parts can get in the way. There was something big missing, I knew, that had to do with pace. I'm not pushing this guys videos, not criticizing in any way, but mention because it helped me make a...

    Tilted Axes, Spirals, and Dynamic Balance

    Dude, you should see my throws now that I'm putting a whole bunch of negative wobble on them. Unbelievable. It's like a wormhole for the disc. There's probably a stack of discs sitting on top of the black cube on Saturn now.

    Running a basket fundraiser event. Ideas to raise money.

    Also, organize some sort of youth engagement situation with some putting games prior with maybe free discs, then go around to Lion's etc. and do a presentation and make the ask. Might just get it all in one or two takes.

    And, he's also saying he has a development process and isn't rushing every throw thought out the door as a video. That's important.

    OverthrowJosh here. AMA

    Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I think in publishing there are no two books that have the same development process, and that's what we are talking about here—development. Still, it's always a conglomerate of known processes and methods in every case. Seems like early days in...

    So, how did you play today? Part II

    Got a new box of discs, stamped them, and took them out on my neighborhood course. Good start, one of my better scores. Pretty consistent wind. I'm adding some lighter weights and new plastics in some molds to see how they work. This 168g Champion Classic-Glow RocX3 Factory Second looks pretty...

    Form: Self analysis?

    There are things I can do to juice the throw, but mostly they also cause disruptions or quicker late acceleration that doesn't end up making a smoother effort. Right now I'm working on throwing downhill and uphill. There might be infinite variations.

    Grip problems - middle finger knuckle catching disc

    My FU finger will swell up like a sausage, so I've had to modify. Gets dicey as I improve and get more speed, too. I just avoid having that finger against the rim. End up with some sort of stupid power fan, which would be even more worthless if I had any power. Good luck. IMO, grip is one of...

    Help me get new hyzer crush drivers

    The more I throw those easy, flip-to-flat shots the more I lean on them. We have a short hole (<250') with a slope down to water all along the left side, with the basket at the top edge of the slope. I've been throwing this ESP Sol off the tee for more than a year and I've not lost the disc yet...

    ThighMaster move from DG Spin Doctor

    I think the more lean/steeper hyzer angle the more you have to be able to control speed and grip. Disc selection, also critical. It's basically how you would throw a spike hyzer, but if you have a flippy disc and accelerate it well it can flatten out to a low bullet. If I'm not warmed up and...

    Putting my arm by my side lets me throw nose down, with less wobble. Why?

    Without looking back at other videos to see what you were otherwise doing with your off hand, I'd suggest you are minimizing the influence of the off arm by binding it in with your core. It may be that whatever you were doing before was causing a disruption to the swing? Now you've removed...
