Thanks SW! I got these earlier today, any improvement on the right elbow? I tried to tackle my backswing a bit, seemed like I had lost how to coil, so I tried to think of my right elbow staying under my shoulder. X step and left arm are definitely in need of work still.

I tried keeping my upper arm far away from my body, and I think I was feeling what that was doing, but I'm not sure if that's cueing something different from the "out-in-out" feeling? Or is that what it is? It seems to create a trade-off for me right now, it often makes the feeling of...

Interesting, sort of Kevin Jones-like too, right? Just checking, by upper arm do you mean closer to the shoulder or closer to the hand? I see how both could be true.

I think I know what you mean, went through a couple different feels to try to get there and maybe showing some promise? My footwork was giving me some trouble today, not as good as yesterday, and the throws were not great, but I think I was starting to figure out how to be more forward without...

Watching back I think one area I need to look at is my front shoulder isn't really dingling right - rather than swinging down under my chin it's moving in kind of a straight line/slight upward trajectory from backswing to finish. Messing around with that, today I found if I took the backswing...

I'm not sure if my problem is 100% the same, but some time back last November my middle finger started catching on the rim as I released BH. I'm not sure exactly sure what part of my finger was catching or how, but I was getting abrasions where the nail meets the cuticle like Bill said, and...

Feel like I inched a bit closer this week. My release at times felt really good, it just seems like I'm one or two "aha"s away from actually getting somewhere. Still on the right track?

Got some more footage on the course, along with maybe some more progress and understanding on the lower body. I think I can finally see my alignment shift from one leg to the other in these side views (put my camera in the wrong spot for the second side view/last clip but included it because I...

Thank you both! Brychanus, by make my rear side look more like his, do you mean like sidewinder? I notice in the double dragon videos from yesterday I'm sort of falling down onto my front side instead of shifting onto it in a rocking motion like kick the can, or like this is that what you're...

Thanks for this, and the excellent writeup you linked in your post! I've been plugging away on double dragons and gotten many, many awful examples on camera, but finally I think something clicked for me re: braced tilt. Two pieces might have clicked for me actually, though only separately...

Definitely discs, 4 years ago with my old form that was terrible on my shoulder and elbow but got me ~450 on a good day. I guess I could hit a baseball harder than that in terms of mph when I played, but I wasn't very good at baseball. Actually, you can see I'm holding onto the disc longer and...

Alright got some slow motion footage and did some experimenting. I think those last couple inches before release are definitely something I need to work on, and I was actually surprised to see how similar my hand was at release across all the different throws. I figured that first short throw...

Interesting, that slowplastic video definitely describes how I at least imagine I'm using my grip, but I do see what you're saying for sure that when I'm throwing at higher speeds in my most recent video my hand is ahead of the disc when it comes out of my grip, and I think that might be a...

Sorry to sidestep your advice for the moment Brychanus, I will get to windmilling soon, but on Monday I was cleared to throw discs full go again and I thought I'd see where I'm at with that. I think the hammer tosses have done me good and I'm liking some of what I'm seeing - but boy do I need to...

I think I'm picking up what you're putting down, and I think I agree, to the extent that I feel good about having an opinion on anything like this that I understand so little about. It immediately reminded me of this thread: https://www.dgcoursereview.com/threads/dfp-thumb-grip.128630/page-5...
