I always felt the 2016 record felt.. dirty, there should be stipulations like I could throw it into a hurricane or a tornado and have the world record throw. The wind limit should be capped at 10-15mph. But that's just my take on it, my best throw was 445ft not 1200ft. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Some inaccuracies in this video in regards to the early, pre-beveled disc records: First, Victor Malafronte's record set at the 1974 Octad was broken about 5 minutes later by me with a C.P.I. Allstar he lent me (Thanks, Victor!). Second, the 290 foot record attributed to me was the indoor record set during the 1975 WFC at the Los Angeles Convention Center. A number of competitors including me hit the low ceiling which prevented greater distances from being achieved. Third, I held the distance record from the 1974 Octad until the fall of of 1978. During that span, I broke my own record becoming the first to throw over 400 feet tossing a 119 World Class Frisbee, 412 feet. In the fall of 1978, John Kirkland bested that with a throw of ~444 feet.

Why should that record stand, wind aided with a 45mph tailwind? That’s not a record, it’s circumstance, track and field wouldn’t allow it. Eagle should just go to the top of Mount Elbert in Colorado and throw a few 5000 footers if that’s the case. Flat ground, no wind, let’s see the true distance… 🎅🏻🏴‍☠️🏔🥏

It really just comes down to release velocity. That’s the most important metric when you can’t control for disc choice, altitude, and prevailing wind. Wiggins can produce 85 MPH with a regulation-weight disc, which is faster than Simon has ever thrown. Yes, Simon there 89 MPH, but he did that with a super lightweight disc. As far as I’m concerned, Eagle is the absolute king of backhand speed. I personally recorded him throwing an 86 MPH roller with a 175G disc at the Beaver State Fling in 2019.

If Stokely had a lightweight boss plus the wind he would have been able to get close to it. Wiggins has a lot of strength so I don’t know how that plays into it, clearly Lizotte is built more similarly to Stokely and he couldn’t hit 1,100 like Wiggins did.

Before you discount Wiggins throw because of the wind, Primm NV is always there & so is the wind. Go take a disc and see what you can do. Wiggins was winning distance competitions since the age of 10, there is a lot more to throwing distance than just the wind

He didn't throw 1100 feet because he's been winning distance comps since age 10 and he's just a god amongst men. He fucking spike anny'd a disc nearly straight up as hard as he could to let the wind just send it.

FWIW the disc used was a lightweight R-pro Boss, a disc almost no one uses under normal conditions and no one else used that day.

One of my best drivers is the pro boss, and until now I've read its little 1108ft claim on it and been confused. This video clarifies that. It should read 1108(45mph wind). If they got a bunch of pros out there in all different tail winds and calculated the graph of distance and wind, they could probably work put a calculation to modify the distance recorded depending on the wind. Ahh, probably not.. cause then there are gusts and thermals, yep too complicated.

Track & Field 100m records don't count if there's a tailwind of more than 2 m/s. That's not a lot of wind. There really should be a wind legal record recorded separately because these salt fields with massive tail winds don't really show off talent as much as how perfectly a gust of wind can grab the underside of a disc and carry it forever.

Track and field events limit world records to a 2.0 m/s wind. Someone could throw a putter further than 1108’ if thrown downhill. Rules should include flatness, altitude, wind, and surface the disc lands on.

hey ive tried throwing with a solid 20-30 mph tailwind, and while yes it adds a HUGE amount of distance(my furthest throw is 509 ft because of that) The discs are nearly COMPLETELY unreadable in the wind, whatever you think you're doing right you're doing wrong, and your discs fly completely differently, I was throwing my innova corvette(the only disc I've gotten over 500)which is relatively flippy in no wind and was turned into a beefcake that day.

Fun record to hold and all, but as the old saying goes.....Drive for show, putt for dough......correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Stokley is the only name on that list that's even had a sniff at a world championship. I'm much more impressed with golfers like Climo, Mcbeth, Korver, Pierce....the ones that win World Championships. But, that's JMO.

I think there should be a distinction made between guy’s throwing for distance in “realistic” conditions and guys going to a special location and in specific conditions that are highly favorable to the distance a golf disc will travel. There should be the distance world record and the realistic distance record.

Disc golf measures where it ends up (with exceptions for things like moving water). For example, a throw that lands on its edge and rolls another hundred feet counts.

There should be a corresponding accuracy variable. In other words so n so threw an 800 foot drive that landed 50 feet from a pinned location. Just tossing an object in a windstorm is a bit silly to assess a skill level. Maybe even a 3rd variable revealing how many attempts were made in a given time frame. We are talking disc golf right?

A tail wind throw shouldn't be a world record. I suggest that if there is a wind then the 3 discs be thrown upwind and 3 discs downwind and the best of each direction be averaged. Otherwise, I could wait for hurricane force wind and just throw it up into the air with a gps attached. Here comes the new record - 50 miles.
