that inverted putt is sick!!! im going to have to try that one....

 

[jdggna]

upside down putt was awesome...what'd he call it? a scooper putt? scoober putt? I couldn't understand him when he said it.

 

[Fore]

Nice video and yes the scoobie putt was sweet!

 

[runnaman]

i like the scoober putt too. I'm going to have to try those cut rollers too.

 

[TalbotTrojan]

Yeah Mike Randolph! Colorado Represent!

Scoober putts are great. I have also picked up a turbo putt for similar instances. I need to go work on the rollers though. It has been a while since I have needed to throw one and I think I may have lost the skill a little bit.

I'm gonna have to call shenanigans on the dive putt on the last shot. It's a foot fault... or rather a knee fault because his right knee hits the ground ahead of the marker prior to release. Here's the 8:13 freeze frame that shows his right knee down in front of the marker and the disc is still in his hands.

It comes down to distance from the basket. I was thinking the same thing when I watched it, but if his lie is over 10 meters from the basket its a legit shot. That said he looks pretty darn close to me.

Not sure if I agree/disagree but the idea is a good one...maybe he just botched the demo. I almost always screw up demos...just something about overthinking it and trying to do it slowly enough for the person to see....anyway

Screwing up a demo is fine, but using the screwed up footage as an educational tool from a major industry sponsor is just plain wrong.

I don't think it comes down to the 10m rule because the disc is still in his hand when the knee touches. You can't have part of your body touching the playing surface ahead of the mark before release regardless of distance to the pin. If the disc had left his hand already, and he's outside 10m, then he could do a double somersault into a cartwheel for all I (and the rules) care.

cool video though... just noticed some shenanigans and calling light to it.

Discraft makes some great learning videos. Love to watch them and learn alot. Does Innova do such a thing?

 

[jdggna]

My bad, didn't catch the "prior to release" in the previous post. I just assumed it was about falling past the mini since that was what I was thinking.

lol that is pretty funny wouldn't see nike showing lebron missing a dunk or tiger shanking a chip shot would they? nice video tho always good times to watch

 

[odysseus81]

Aren't they also making it where within 10 meters you have to maintain balance after release of the putt...meaning even after you release it, you still can't fall forward? That is how it was explained to me this past weekend.

 

[colodiscgolfer]

That is correct. We're working under the assumption that he's outside 10m, but it's still a foul that would result in a penalty

Discraft Vids are Tops

Thanks for postin the latest vid. I have taken several techniques from the Discraft video series.

More like showing Lebron travelling on his way to a dunk... Which they do

Yes, but Dave Feldberg didn't use that overhand grip. I've never seen that grip on an upside down shot before.

Once again, Discraft makes a video as useful as their discs
