2009 UPA Club Nationals Ultimate Frisbee Highlights

Highlights from the Open Division at the 2009 UPA Club Championships. Enjoy.

[@jplmedley]

I've never seen anything like that - 2:42. That's the perfect set up with the tip!

[@scsiscope]

holy shit carter, i've watched this maybe 50 times this weekend, only to just realize it was your video. awesome video dude. -holmes

[@wolfsbro2]

The editing and coordination with the music at 2:41 is so well done...

[@discparker]

definitely you're best video yet big guy...Zip's layout is just outrageous

[@f117flyboy]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!! I use it to show friends what competitive ultimate is like. And I like the music choice. There are plenty of ultiVids out there with angry rock or hip hop. Nice to have something different to show to a broader audience.

[@thatmexicankid2]

this video proves why Ultimate is so awesome, i love this sport

[@amirm4000]

@Jontenn This is considered contact or limited contact, like basketball. Non-contact examples are golf, tennis, and volley ball. Full contact is rugby, football, wrestling. No refs. That characteristic is referred to as "spirit of the game."

[@steelerfan786]

amazing video and great song to go along with it

[@zefrad9]

The best ultimate highlight real there is. Great Vid.

[@Jachi91]

awesome vids... i don't have any others words to describe it... 1000000*

[@jduff025]

the track works perfectly with the highlights

[@ScrantonMusic83]

Zip, never ceases to amaze.

[@spawacko]

one of the greatest ever layouts at 2.50

[@dadude2140]

Holy crap. Ive never seen anything so unsportsmanlike in Frisbee.

[@TheDaveRoss]

2:41 to 2:51 is Josh Ziperstein of Chain Lightning. Simply amazing.

[@ISt0leTheCookies]

Perhaps the most physics defying sport ever. Discs are so much more epic than balls haha

[@peacefuljeffrey]

00:28 -- excellent catch against a much taller defender! Wow!

[@cherie12456]

Gotta love Ultimate!

[@Portboy]

O god, please re do this awesome video with better music and higher quality - please oh please!

[@JewJitzutTed]

2:41 is the most amazing thing ive ever seen 8in my life

[@bigmackdombles6348]

what an awesome feeling that must've been 3:13 Ultivillage is getting a nice swagger to their graphics and overall product, the music choices need a lot of rethinking though. lion king ost? i feel there's music out there much more suitable to the pace and intensity of ultimate; especially a highlight reel. nonetheless, awesome video, thanks for the upload.

[@unavailable852]

love the sport, love the video.

[@skiener910]

@amirm4000 I was there. Zip (Chain Lightning - Purple) called a foul and was overuled by the observers as the majority of the contact happened after the Beau (Revolver - Red) caught the disc. Goal.

[@peacefuljeffrey]

00:28 -- excellent catch against a much taller defender! Wow! 01:50 -- awesome save!!

[@ahirschMM]

2:42, sickest layout ever seen

[@tpeacock06]

2:42 is one of my favourite highlights of all time!

[@georgebrell]

@AugustAuthor23 Atlanta's Chain Lightning, San Francisco's Revolver, Boston's Ironside, Seattle's Sockeye, Austin's Doublewide, Raleigh's Ring of Fire, San Francisco's Jam, Denver's Johnny Bravo, DC's Truck Stop, Madison's Club, Massachusetts' Bodhi, Toronto's GOAT, Columbus' Madcow, Chicago's Machine, San Diego's Streetgang and New Jersey's Pike.

[@matthiasgarr]

The hammer at 1;12 was the sexiest hammer I've ever seen.

[@metuic]

2:50 was the amazing catch ive seen and i jumped over a guy and did a back flip

[@blockdsk1]

2:49 is the best catch you will ever see

[@PlayBandy]

this is an amazing sport! It is really fun!

[@HuckFTW]

2:42 you will never see a better play in your life

[@dude7597]

The song lyric for 0:28 was perfectly timed.

[@Greyboy1117]

2:42 is the sickest thing i think i have ever seen in my life

[@nac817]

Its called "Wavin Flag" buts its different from the version I have. Sweet video evan

[@proteincheese]

@evcarter idk, i like this music choice here. Its really majestic and brings up the spirit of the game. He lyrics are suitable too. Its better than a lot of rock/rap songs that are in other vids.

[@metuic]

this is awesome man awesome!!!

[@SnackUltimate]

@evcarter It was certainly not a BAD choice for a song. I never understood why UV put in all those crappy demo version of Cut To Pieces by The Turn. They eventually made a video that had the real recorded song but they made a few that sounded like crap. This was the first 09 highlight I saw and I loved it. The only bone I had to pick was it didn't show team and score updates with the goal etc... But that is only because I am from Australia and can't keep up with all the changing jerseys!

[@evcarter]

its the celebration mix of wavin flag, you can find it on hype machine, thanks guys

[@oranqero]

wow this looks awesome!

[@Stealthomas]

thumbs up for the guy at 3:02 whose expression is like i just did something wrong even tho he had juz scored

[@roylane11]

2:42 old guys lays out. epic!

[@heritageodie19]

@highintensityairsoft Two major points: A) People don't play Ultimate with their dogs. That's just a form of fetch, and most Ultimate players cringe at the thought of a dog biting their discs. B) Okay, you have that the army sometimes uses airsoft for training exercises, but ya know what quite a few people in the army do for fun because it is also good cardio and conditioning? Yeah, that's right. Ultimate.

[@matthiasgarr]

The hammer at 1:10 was the sexiest hammer I've ever seen.

[@skimmer538]

@BeanTownBomba07 the Zip Tips are SICK i recomend them to anyone who not only plays ultimate but anyone in general

[@wrxkid85]

@Greyboy1117 Thats the stuff that makes you play competitive ultimate. Just watching it fuels the fire to play.

[@0Akeldama0]

that was awesome by the way

[@bravoleader27]

Great vid!!!!

[@theyamthief]

couldn't agree more

[@michiganfan725]

2:49 i wish i slid that much. our home field is thick grass, and you stop dead when you hit the ground

[@Stealthomas]

I like the guy at 3:02 his expression is like i juz did something bad even tho he juzed scored

[@pantersplayer]

whats the name of the song. really awesome vid. ty for upl. makes me wanna play eachday..

[@aylishwinsyoulose]

... Me and my friends have signed up for this as enrichment in college... we are going to die.

[@evcarter]

@MisterJesse i'm honored that you thought this came from ultivillage. also i'm trying to get music choices right, so if you've got any suggestions send me some. thanks again.

[@HoboDubs]

@RixBriann Haters gonna hate the best sport in the world. It takes incredible athleticism to do this.

[@smitgw11]

2:43 ..... Awesome.

[@heritageodie19]

1:10 One-handed layout for a hammer...I suddenly feel like a little less of a man after watching that and knowing I have never come close to pulling that off.

[@Rey123Duncan]

2:41..that was pretty sick..

[@jaakeecc]

2:42 the BEST

[@wantedsponge121]

3:10 had me laughing out loud. great video! :)

[@sorrowfull]

@orangeandblack25 Because it works and moves the disc. See it all the time against a Z

[@ahomeyinneed]

@haywhatsupdog hah, yeah, it stands for Boy Meets World. he looks straight up like one of the cast members of that show. he's a fucking sick player though.

[@CuJo33]

@jpopp009 Thats one of the biggest Lays ive ever seen!!!! A reminder to all never give upon a disc!!!

[@danieltbingham]

@thozol Cause it's a freaking good song, that's why.

[@illegitimate0]

2:42 is Josh Ziperstein.

[@dadude2140]

Yeah I really like how the entire game is based on honor and calling your own fouls. I like how there's no real penalty, and it doesn't really matter, because the players are cool enough to say "oh yeah my bad I'm really sorry." and then Resume play. Lately, the pro sports have some players (not all, but some) that are so intent on destroying the other team that they dont care much for the honor code. However, Frisbee just became pro, so idk how that will affect gameplay and the players

[@TotallyAFrisbeeNerd]

The guy at 2:50 slid about as far as he ran!

[@ProleetGreek]

that's my friend in the vid, no joke

[@skimmer538]

starting at 2:42 is absoulutly insane!!!!!!!

[@cbell2k9]

@FedorByRape Um. Games go to over 100 points in basketball. Highlight reels consist of a ball going through a hoop a bunch of times. What's your definition of repetitive exactly?

[@dustructleo2]

i swear the guy at 3:08 was the last guy in the 2008 vid :P

[@dadude2140]

fair game. In the air, physical contact is allowed

[@ahomeyinneed]

@haywhatsupdog BMW's your coach? that's awesome. where do you go to high school?

[@iLikeFonix]

awesome.

[@juandiegogualterossierra9251]

the song is very cool makes the game better plus i chevre ultimate and what is it to play that song makes the video very cool

[@MrIJustWatch]

@dgub I don't get it either, it just damages the disc not to mention people do it know with sub average catches and plays. I just give it a gentle toss to the ground and act like i've been there. Plus im a youngin, don't worry when I coach other people I always tell the proper way to celebrate.

[@TheDarkNobleOne]

If your team doesn't have possession and u knock an opposing pass to ghe ground, does the possession change to yours or does it stay same?

[@samallamabangbang]

@hydroshock56 The guys in orange are observers, they call ins and outs and can be called upon do help make decisions on calls on the field but are not referees.

[@Maw0822]

@redjed35 yea I was impressed by the D and the catch lol

[@bugred]

It's too bad Chain Lightning got beat by DOUBLEWIDE at southern regionals - sick game!

[@redsun51]

@willcloyd that's Chang beasts... GO ATRANTA!

[@ChubzyWubzy71zy]

1:14-1:22 number 11 in white is my HS ultimate coach :D

[@erickBUENO2009]

number 8 defense yeah!

[@MrIJustWatch]

Does anyone else think that a frisbee catch harder to call than anyother sideline call? This is from just a ref or players on field, no replays. Because you know when a a football player has control or not but it just takes one or two fingers sometimes to catch a frisbee.

[@dadude2140]

You're right, but I'm not wrong.... If we both bid for the disc and we collide, its not a foul

[@grizz281]

3:19 boy's got ups

[@Commonvoice815]

@0:45 #8 got the ultimate beard going on!!!

[@GrantDula10]

3:20 nuff said.

[@Cstrub28]

I want to know why Ultivilliage can't get a decent camera.

[@clizzaster]

@isuckatlol It's mostly man, but every good plays some zone now and then depending on the conditions.

[@MDWebb420]

2:50 holy shit!

[@SFGshirtless]

I love you too

[@hunterb2194]

0:45 yeah chi town

[@avramkeeper]

And that warranted your question? The syntax being awkward? You must have to spend quite a lot of time correcting people's syntax.

[@skimmer538]

@jpopp009 what teams were those playing?

[@ultimaterollo]

was that DJ juggling the disc towards the end?? oops...

[@heatbucspies55]

I think they're both sick. Very different though.

[@cmbats]

@amirm4000 Technically the guy could have called a foul but since they all went up for the same disk and the guy that knocked everyone over got the disk first it isn't really a foul. None of those guys would call it because they got skied pretty badly.

[@toffeeman2112]

#5 @1:06 haha, "Oh YEA!"
