    I can BARELY break 300'

    Been a few weeks, I've been playing some rounds and trying to incorporate some different ideas. I should be able to get a video of me actually throwing this weekend. I tried to stay hinged back during this video and not let my hips come forward past my shoulders, and keep my chest down. I've...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    I wasn't able to get any fieldwork practice this weekend so I'm stuck inside doing drills. I've been going through door frame drill some more, and tried the don't spill the beverage drill a few times to try and stop opening hips and shoulders too soon, and keep my shoulder from collapsing while...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    I've been trying some practice swings inside while keeping my hips and pelvis more neutral instead of in anterior pelvic tilt. My brace feels more solid doing this, but it takes basically all of my attention to do so without just collapsing back to "normal" (anterior pelvic tilt). I'm gonna try...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    So I can't throw until the weekend most likely due to my work schedule, but I read through that thread again, and watched the reciprocating dingle arm video again, and I think it's making more sense now. I've watched it before and read that thread before but was always a little confused how to...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    I tried throwing using the feel from the last video, and it was frustrating to say the least. I'm having a difficult time not tipping over the brace and rotating around the right leg axis properly, so I decided to power it way down and just throw as simple as I could while still trying to get my...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    I can't get out to throw until later this week, but I was trying out some practice swings and got really excited so I wanted to post and see if I'm on the right track. I looked through some slightly older posts on my thread here, and rewatched the turbo encabulator video. My brain looked at...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    Hey there, I'm back, I haven't played much or thrown discs for about two years but I got out recently and was bitten by the bug again. This is a video I took after a few rounds. I went back through some of the later stuff in my thread here and when I took a few videos I really noticed the off...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    Well I'm not sure if this is better or just more of the same. My main focus here was just trying to shift my weight faster onto the plant foot. While doing these throws I felt more upright, but I still might be pushing my spine over, hard to tell. Also I'll apologize in advance for the angle. I...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    This video was kind of late so Its a bit hard to see, but I'm mainly focusing on getting my elbow more forward, while keeping everything I've been doing so far https://youtu.be/hfsurLMh_64 Also I did some x steps after I took this video and this happened

    I can BARELY break 300'

    So I don't know how helpful this video will be. I had my friend take a quick video at the end of a round we played yesterday so the angle is what I usually put up. I figured I would post it anyway though. I'm having some difficulty getting my elbow more forward but I'm slowly getting there...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    Well I explained most of my thought process on this throw in the previous post, so I won't go over that again. I did find that when I tried to throw just keeping my arm to my side, it went straight around back again, so I decided to give it a job. I'm putting it out near my throwing arm during...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    So I'm actually pretty excited for this. I tried out some practice swings inside a few times, focusing on bringing my shoulders perpendicular to the target instead of over rotating. It felt like I was keeping my reachback more controlled I guess I could say? In doing this it feels like my timing...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    Tried again today. I was trying to focus this time on getting my knees more separate and still trying to keep my friggin back arm in front. That alone is becoming a very hard habit to break. I was also focusing on trying to bring my plant step more in line with my back foot and less diagonal In...

    I can BARELY break 300'

    I also wanted to ask if I should try and start practicing x steps again. I threw a couple today with an x step and actually managed to put one out to 395!!!! So close to breaking my 400 goal.

    I can BARELY break 300'

    Went out to throw again today, and man it was wet. I pushed through though. I decided to get from the side, and the back view in the same video so I could put my tripod away immediately after, as I didn't want it falling in puddles while I went to grab my discs. Still keeping with the feet...
