Guy stands in field to try and throw plastic to 400.

I *think* I might of figured something out...

The way I move my hips is different- feels like I’m ice skating but stood still.

I started by walking on the spot then I walked ...harder.
By walking “harder” I felt a motion that was like my hips swivelling, then I started to see what would happen if I moved laterally doing this. Then I saw in PLSD when SW does this dingle arm move from leg to leg in balance and the rear foot kind of everts / glides up. I imagined doing this & notions of a dance like feel.

Maybe it’s something! Again, feels very different.

Psychologically, it helps me to think of it as a ninja-like move. Dance is cool, but ninjas are cooler.

I think the lower body shifting is good. Now just have to delay the shoulders or think about pulling the shoulder with the hips. It is admittedly hard to do without any weight in the hand.

It's like combining the ice skating you are doing with the door frame drill. As you ice skate back and forth, there should be a door frame on either side pulling your arm/shoulder.

That feels so good to read! Legitimately I think this might be the first time I’ve understood how the lower body works. I’ve come close but also still so far from what this appears to be. Excited to re read a lot of threads, more gold is discovered with each major step.

Two big breakthroughs in a month. Nice.

I’ll be skatin’ round the apartment tonight 😂

I’m pretty hyped. Best it’s ever looked and felt so far. Really excited to actually throw a disc! I think I’m close to “graduating”! Expectations? I know, I know... ��

Maybe a little outside my posture on the backswing.

Need to turn inside feet and tilt back.

Got it! Is the action looking almost correct tho? Before I get carried away.

I can really see how important it is to get over the rear foot during xstep to “skate” forward now. It’s so hard if the weight is tipped back whatsoever.

Hard to tell. If you kept your arm swinging around instead of stopping short maybe.

Haha got it. Can’t get out until Sunday to do a full swing, gotta work with what I got in the micro work apt.
