Regarding the comment about the chocolate egg Veli Berglund is a Finn but the residence decides so according to the PDGA he does represent Estonia.
It says the video was pulled. :cry:

Not a great loss. The holes in the first of the three videos were interesting in a bastardly, dastardly kinda way with all that water. Hole 20 where everyone on the lead card goes OB on their tee shot was particularly evil. After that they just became kinda dopey with an over reliance on artificial obstacles.

Kinda puts West Lake into a different perspective.
 
West Lake is a mean course... Shot 95 there (par 89) recently with 3 in the lake that were unretrievable... :evil:
 
Doh! I hope he didn't get hassle for music. Youtube is now a preying ground for all manner of shady firms and individuals claiming to own copyrights or distribution rights to music. That they don't own in many cases judging by how lcgm8 has been treated. And Youtube automatically sides with the claims. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? Now it is guilty until proven innocent. I hear that tube is deep in the pocket of music industry these days. It sucks that the industry itself practices, to a degree at least, piracy. It is funny someone claims ownership of music composed, played, recorded and never released anywhere else by lcgm8 in the vids he has uploaded. And he needs to do a counter claim to not have his videos, possibly all of them, being pulled. I don't know how many attempts have been made to claim intellectual property of lcgm8 vids but i was involved in one case where i paid the band for the music and it is not released anywhere and the band has not made deals with anyone else and the song is previously unreleased. So it is a clear cut case if we were to prosecute. I have a stick up mine about that and might get so pissed off that i might start bombarding Youtube about their practices and sue the villains. Since Youtube is possibly an accessory in the eyes of Finnish law they may not like my actions either. This is a systematic problem so even a class action suite would be possible. GRR :twisted: I hope that Youtube sees the light and smells the coffee without wasting the time of everyone. Without the need to be sued. This is harmful to everyone involved becaus really Youtube ain't the real offender but might get trouble because of the actions of others. Disc golfers get hurt because Youtube is the best medium for video distribution and growing the sport. That is why i am super reluctant to bring more jackals to the fray. I could do without the hassle very easily. I mean paying for working to promote the sport gets old and either stopping making vids or moving to commercial releases only or trying to push the vids to TV are options. Except spreading the vids as for sale only hard copies is still probably on the red for non US events judging by previous sales. People like to by throwable discs -not viewable ones. Major TV channels in Finland buy material only from their established sources. What's up with that? Monopoly laziness?
 
This looks like a professionally done video from The Australian Disc Golf Championship 2011:

Vilnius Open 2012 footage from Lithuania:

Here is a guy that thinks he has thrown 200 meters at sea level in freak winds. He does not believe in running in a straight line at the target. While it is true that he gets more power from the weight shift of the body back to front and rotationally i posit that it shortens the time window during which the disc is moving at the target. Which makes accuracy and repetition more difficult. So it is a good data point and something to think about. And a training matter to even be able to say is it worth it for you to add power and make the throw more complex. The more you play in dry warm weather with great traction the less running in a curve is a problem for accuracy and scores. It ain't terribly difficult to learn to throw like that in good conditions but at least i have terrible problems with it in wet weather on slippery tees.

More footage but please note that DG is a relatively new sport in the Baltic states. It shows for now.

Not exactly video but great 3D stills from the European Open 2009 from a Finnish pro media guy. If you have red/cyan glasses click C ana below the images and slideshow on to enjoy:

Red/cyan glasses are needed to view these 3D images i took at Tali Open 2012 on Friday. I don't have other stills from the event. I have plenty of videos that aren't converted yet. The videos converted by the software from the camera manufacturer have lots of artefacts the stills are less hurt by the conversion process.

Round 1 action from Tali Open 2012. Filmed by Olli the rest are my fault. These videos are converted to red/cyan by the software from the camera manufacturer so they aren't nearly as good looking as lcgm8 enhanced ones in seven drives with Avery Jenkins video. Of course those were side by side format.

Weekly competitions at the two courses in Tampere, Finland.

The first is organized by Disc Golf Club Tampere at Vihioja:

Epilä course with a new disc golf club Tampereen frisbeegolfseura organizing the event:

Epilä park hosted The European Open 2009 and earlier EOs but normally the park has fewer holes and many EO holes are longer than the regular course.
 
Any SDGO 2012 coverage in the pipeline? We miss your Euro-Tourney coverage on this side of the world ...
 
Sorry we weren't in Stockholm. I filmed Tali Open but the editor gets his hands on the work only after the season is dying down. He's active in his club arranging events and competing on top of work and family life. lcgm8 bought awesome new stuff and depending on how it works we might be able to provide _kick ass_ footage from a later non Euro Tour event.
 
I didn't have anything more to do with this video other than telling the TD i couldn't make it to the event.

I like the fact that they had 3 cameras so they had enough time to move forward early enough to set up their gear stable enough to use a tripod (always slower to operate than a monopod). And even more because they show different angles than what i was able to in 2010 so you get a new sense of the holes and new vistas.

Here is the Stockholm Disc Golf Open 2012 final of the open men division:
 
JR, you guys seem to be able to follow the disc in flight very well. This last video, while very good, had trouble doing so. Is it because of the distance their camera's are set up away from the thrower or what? (I'm sure it's your superior skill. :mrgreen: ) Just curious.
