Background (form check links are at the bottom of this post):
Started playing 4 years ago. After a year and a half of playing, I found this forum and posted a form check request/video (see link to original form check videos below). At this point I was throwing somewhere over 300' consistently.

Fast forward to now. I have implemented some of the suggestions and practice drills and have improved my form somewhat. I am now consistently hitting 390-400' (2/3 drives), with great (1 out of every 20) drives going 415-425' and some occasional drives hitting 450'. I max out with mids (RocX3 and Mako3) around 320-330'. The driver distances are with either a seasoned champ valkyrie or champ/star destroyers. The destroyers are most consistent, but rarely break 415' because I can't get very much turn out of them at that distance. With no wind they will only flip to flat, then hyzer back out - I normally release these on slight hyzer during max power drives. The very few 450' drives I've had have been either with the champ valkyrie or a beat-in champ wraith (which has since been lost). These shots came out "different" (read, visually faster) than my normal throws, and flipped to a perfect S-turn for max distance.
I know I have the potential to get to 500' consistently. However, I've again reached a plateau in distance and am now posting my current form for help and improvement suggestions.
I only practice 1-2 times per week currently (I am on a 4 day/week weightlifting regimen currently), so that may be contributing to the plateau.
