Ryan Sheldon at/near release

This isn't related to the thighmaster video, but I felt it was relevant to the discussion here since its a critique of one of jaani's videos. What are your thoughts on his critiques? I think a lot of the disagreements might just be a misunderstanding (much like the arguments in this thread) but...

How is this girl able to hit 70mph+ while staying on the heel for so long during the transition?

I've slowed my backswing down and also made other improvements and my backhand is feeling a lot better. Something I've been messing around with recently is throwing with more internal shoulder rotation. Trying it out on the course, it seems like when I get it right my disc's come out faster, but...

Wiggins at the hit from this vid:

Here's two of the top distance drives at the 2023 USDGC distance comp. Man, Saukoriipi's form looks so good.

Not sure if these have been posted before, but I also got a bunch of slow mos from the European open 2015

Heres some super slow mo from the holy shot documentary

I've just had somewhat of a breakthrough with my mental game that might help. I've always struggled with being in my own head during a round, whether thinking about form or just making a shot, and I recently figured out a somewhat reliable way to clear my mind. Its hard to describe, but I think...

Not sure why it didn't upload, but here is the image of Kuoksa I was referring to

Although my distance has steadily been increasing, there have been some major issues that I have been ignoring, and I don't think I will break 500' without fixing them. Here's my current form: tFtTUt4_mM4 P7XS0U76kvg The biggest problem I think I have (correct me if I'm wrong), that has plagued...

https://www.reddit.com/r/discgolf/comments/13264wo/offarm_mechanics/ Here is an interesting reddit post by coach chris taylor about the off arm. He also talks about pulling with the shoulders/arm to get a deep pocket, which seems to go against what is talked about here

Personally, I find that I can get a much deeper power pocket with the wing down. There are also a lot of high level throwers who do this. Sidewinder talks about it here: aADjcR_ZtUw
