    The forehand body bend

    The last 2 weeks my forehand finally has hit a point where all throws feels so easy to achieve distance and aiming is consistant. But.... today on the field form was back to normal, some throws was good but mostly lots of turn overs, elbow felt stuck, follow through was bad, shoulder hurt etc...

    Hand/wrist above the elbow?

    I have been noticed some players like Calvin and Simon having their elbow low and wrist/hand above the elbow in the run up and reachback but releaseing below the elbow. I know dropping the elbow is a nono but is there some advantage to do so before the release?

    How to use your wrist?

    Lately i have been rolling my wrist bh and it feels like i push the disc forward with my fingers. Its not like im strong arming it, I do wait for the heel to come down and throwing from my chest maybe 350. When i was putting today i might got a lightbulb moment by focusing driving/pushing my...

    Forehand Wobble?

    I think wobble is a timing issue by not using your body to throw ending up throwing with your arm loosing the hips or upper body stretch. I have noticed recently why i can smash 10 clean 350 feet+ in a row in a field and after picking them up and throw them i do 10 wobbely throws like all...

    Starting position

    So with starting position i mean if you start your runup/xstep facing target or more sideways. When checking lots of pros form more seems to start with body facing the target. I havent really done that so much, my shoulders is more perpendicular when taking my first step. Yesterday i was out...

    Just two "minor" tweaks, that might improve your FH.

    Ye same, it can hurt alot! Thats why im trying to have my elbow already infront of my wrist and staying loose at the same time, its easy to loose the position if you swing back but I kinda focus on lock it there and let elbow go away from body in that position, it might go inline with my wrist...

    Just two "minor" tweaks, that might improve your FH.

    Been working on the same thing and yes the hip/shoulder seperation seems like its key but its hard to accomplish. Instead of focusing on core i have started to focus on footwork, small shuffle step elbow already cocked infront of wrist then hard push from rear leg into hard plant with your arm...

    Holding your breath while throwing?

    Recently find a new yt channel where this guy talks about its important to hold your breath while throwing to tightening up your core which locking everything together, otherwise you loose the tension from the reachback. So fill stomach with air then hold breath in the pull through. Any...

    Forehand technique

    Just a FH update that might help others with a inconsistent forehand. I figured it out today why some days everything clicks and the disc comming out clean without wobble with great spin+distance and no elbow pain and other days the feeling is gone and all throws feels diffrent wobbly and a...

    Forehand form check!

    Hm what do you mean by out? As if it should stay closer to my body for faster rotation? I actully dont think about my offarm. Ye i noticed the air bounce, i think its cus i throw with my elbow higher up to my waist and swing it back up. Maybe, but it was effective this time :) next time i rec...

    Forehand form check!

    Finally was in the mood to film my forehand that i have worked on the latest months and iam really suprised about seeing my form.. How wide to the right i plant my foot, thought my feet where almost inline. Not sure its a good thing, dont see that often in pros form. I know ive seen it before...

    Adidas Terrex should i have gortex or not?

    Have had a pair of terrex swift r2 gtx a year now but they are ripping apart so just order a pair of ax3 without gortex. But iam starting to regret it tho my swift r2 havent really been that waterproof and take time to dry after they been soaked. Does anyone has experience of both gtx or...

    Scraping/filing or sanding inner edge of the rim.

    Il get it but its just something special about it, it feels so good in my hand and I allways got the nose down with it compare to other discs its just a match. Got 2 terns aswell but use them for diffrent shots, i like that it has 3 in fade. If I find a disc with same size of rim, diameter etc...

    Scraping/filing or sanding inner edge of the rim.

    I don't really care at all if its illegal or not, wont compete on such a high level more then a amateur cup. But the rule probably tells me it could be good doing it :) who cards really how you beat the disc in.
