I've been trying to start critiquing myself more, and have been repeatedly watching my form videos and comparing them to Drew Gibson, and drawing out what I believe is going poorly and correctly. I definitely think trying to analyze them myself is helping a lot in just understanding what is...
Finally have some time to work on form again. I went out to the field and started doing more one leg drills, I really focused on trying to feel the weight of the disc when I pulled through.

Throwing Something Heavy...
Back with a couple more videos, I've been doing the perpetual longer swing every time i've needed a break from studying, hoping to get that into muscle memory. I went out and was only able to throw a couple of throws and made sure to not just reach straight back, but windmill over the top or...
First things first for this post I wanna say thanks for the patience with my boneheaded form, I really appreciate what you guys do trying to help people improve!
Now, I went out to the field and threw one-leg for quite a while, recorded every single one and attempted to correct one after the...
Here’s two examples of the drill, hopefully one of them is in the right direction. I’ve got sort of a feeling of throwing off one leg, but I’m horribly balanced in doing so. I’m guessing this is because of how ingrained my old form is.

Here is the latest form video:

I went back and watched the videos from the second post, and the one that struck out to me the most that I was doing terribly terribly wrong was the tilted super spiral. I tried to keep my spine on that same plane throughout the...
I'll go back to a standstill and try to brush up from the second post, I'm a little confused on how to interpret this.
"You are also striding with your feet separating way ahead of your knees, they should be separating more together"
Does this mean my knees and feet should be more vertically...
I am back after much delay with some more work to be done. I went and reread this thread and attempted to put as much of it into practice as I could the past couple of days.
The main things i've focused on are:
- "Wiping" my butt and leading with my back
- Initiating the throw with my...
Well, I'm back and still hitting this wall with my back "dipping" over my front foot. I watched a ton of videos on bracing, and the videos linked in this thread, and the general consensus i got from those is that my footwork is what is throwing off my upper body. I focused a lot on staying on...
I'm back, with 2 weeks off to do nothing but form, should be fun I hope.
I watched a ton of videos on bracing and did the one-leg drill for quite some time, I feel like I finally had a breakthrough on at least the mental side of things and why we actually brace. I've been able to incorporate...
You weren't kidding, this is so irritating, I would throw standstill after standstill and do one small run up, and every time i'd go look to the camera and nothing would be different. So I really really tried to rotate around my front leg in this video instead of my spine. I'm not going to...

Video i was referencing with the near parallel x-step foot, is it a wise idea to begin to imitate this form, or is that too unique of an x-step to try to copy from?
Now I know I probably shouldn’t spam the forums but all I can think about is form and I’ve been doing a lot of watching. I was watching some pros tee off and I noticed in this video, Grady’s X-step foot is almost completely parallel with his line of throw. I really like the style of form he...
