In other words, find out what their grips have in common with all other big arm throwers and emulate that part rather than focusing on the part of their grip that is different.

This, I found a common tweak that alot of big arms and pro's use and it's found in almost every grip out there. I incorporated it into my grip and a few other mechanics I've been working on. Been getting great results and achieving more nose down.

I dont use a fan grip but I do use a pinch grip for everything. It is like the power grip but with my last finger digits bending out instead of in.

Instead of placing the disc right down the crease or middle of your palm as shown in the Climo video, I place it a little below that line on the part/cheek of the palm closest to the ground. It'll feel a little awkward at first, but once get your fingers in the fork position and tilt that wrist down it feels way more tight and loaded than the way others have taught me. I immediately have more shots staying nose down and traveling straight. I know alot of people actually do do this, but there are a whole lot of people who don't. Very helpful to my game.

Ditto. After realizing this all i could think about was how much my game was going to improve.
