Comment how many times I say “grip” so enter in a giveaway for a mystery disc!

[@tuckergamble3311]

Does too many times count as an amount? 😂 Seriously though good video! I’ll have to give it a try!

[@venomkd]

i think i counted 29 grip and 1 griping lol

[@dw.discgolf]

30 grips/griping 😂

[@gavinquigley1616]

29 grip/grips and 1 griping

[@spacebill721]

If I ever want to both win and lose I'll do this.

[@martindippis7744]

Kinetic energy is when the disc is moving, you're building up potential energy (such as elastic potential energy in the rubber band analogy).

[@Infinitediscs]

My friend informed me of this after filming the video… 😂

[@martindippis7744]

@@Infinitediscs 😂 awesome vid!

[@davidwalker6626]

Yup. Totally agree. This is a great video but I'm sure the purists will complain about kinetic (moving) vs potential (stationary) 😂

[@LiftOperator52]

This is exactly how I hold my discs. I throw from a standstill with subpar technique as a disabled, middle aged FA40 Player with 18 months experience. My furthest throws are the ones I get nice long pulls on and the disc is ripped out of my hand by the energy I generated. I am still working on wrist curl. When done properly I get that WHOOSH 💨 as the disc takes off. Done poorly = shanked far but in the wrong direction.

[@sethjones3941]

28 times, thank you so much been working on this specifically and you solidified and clarified everything!! Can't wait for more

[@grafforlock]

I went back and watched twice, definitely had the grip counter at 30. I also want to point out that pinch grip was a big breakthrough moment for me, being able to spin the disc around that single focal point just makes it spin so much faster.

[@Carnivorefitness2024]

I completely agree, grip it tight, it really works better.

[@markhumphrey8894]

I didn't realize how loose my grip was and the disc had no zip. Game changer! Ripping putter so straight to 200ft. I could probably try a mid/putter round and do as well as I used to with drivers.

[@jonkaemmerer3275]

Definitely late to the game here!😅 just wanted to say great video man! I’m a dominant right handed person and had to go through some extensive arterial surgery a few years back. I’m new-ish to the sport(less than a year) and have had to learn to throw lefty, I’m capping at around 330ish ft but your video helped me to understand I haven’t quite had the grip I’m looking for, thanks for an awesome video and I can’t wait to change my tension point and see what I can do!! Keep it up my dude 👍

[@Phyco8]

30 grip mentions Also you build up potential energy that becomes kinetic energy. Sorry for the correction, I’m good at physics but bad at disc golf 😊. Awesome grip advice.

[@gwsmallwood]

The problem I have is the tighter I grip the tighter the rest of my arm gets. It’s hard to throw with a loose arm and avoid muscling when you’re gripping tightly. I think it needs to be a bit more relaxed until right before the hit.

[@discgolfaround]

I was thinking the same thing... How to people get that loose, relaxed arm AND the tight grip? I feel like I can't do one without the other... yet

[@pedrodomingo180]

Throw a round with Vaseline on your hand

[@paintballjunkie65]

Connor!!!! I was wondering what happened to you man! I hope you make some rippin discs videos again. I still go back to those from time to time!!!!

[@Infinitediscs]

Plan on rolling a few out a month here starting soon! Not sure what direction to take the channel quite yet tho.

[@nickolasmontague6339]

Great video!!!, it’s a little too snowy to practice rn, but I’m pretty sure you said grip 30 times!

[@michaellarsen7276]

Well, there's "grip" and there's "gripping". I'm going with 30. I see it has been mentioned that there is a big difference between "kinetic" and "potential" energy. Build up your potential energy so that you can turn it into kinetic.

[@brettbuttars2792]

Thanks for posting…I’ll give it a try.

[@ChayseGrizzell]

I wish someone would make a grip video for people with smaller hands. Every video is made assuming you can power grip a distance driver comfortably. You can also forget using a fan grip with smaller hands… you can’t get any pressure. Slips out every time.

[@Infinitediscs]

Definitely something I will be looking further into! Thanks for the idea!

[@pbgamble]

What's the widest rim that's comfortable for you? Evaders, Eagles, and Teebird3s can be bombed pretty far with accuracy if you have decent form. Try a 10 speed disc if a Wraith is uncomfortable. HTH😎🤙

[@davedunipace750]

best grip video I have seen.

[@jaynorris3631]

Great advice

[@nixx1195]

30 times!

[@i2ossEmC]

I’ve got the “grip” count at 30. Solid video!

[@timeandspacevintage3380]

Is the flight plate squeezed between your first fingers tip and thumb or is the tip of your finger sideways on the rim and you are squeezing against your knuckle? Grip is so confusing its really hard to actually show in a video and is arguably one of the main components of sending it

[@Infinitediscs]

I would say that my thumb is mostly pressing against the side of the tip of my pointer if that makes sense. I have also seen people grip more in the middle of there pointer finger but there definitely is a comfort factor as well!

[@timeandspacevintage3380]

@@Infinitediscs is your pointer finger pressing sideways against the rim or up against the flight plate? Or somewhere in the middle of the two

[@A.M03]

31 grips

[@burnstileinstallation9563]

That's my guess.

[@robg.7006]

Another vote for 30 here. Great video, can't wait to give it a shot!

[@burnstileinstallation9563]

I counted 31x. I kept getting 28 at first, but realized I missed a few of the early fan-grips.

[@qpiekkola1715]

Grip consistency is always plaguing me. And I believe 30 is what I counted as well.

[@ericjepson3765]

are you pinching the flight plate or the rim of the disc? Thanks

[@TheMortivore1]

I tallied 30 and that's including power grip, fan grip etc.

[@Smokechaser92]

My question is how do you aim when grippin n rippin?

[@dw.discgolf]

On my far throws, the disc rips out of my hand. I have a nice squeeze on it about 70-90% of my grip strength. Any less, it falls out of my hand. Any more, I yank it. 😂 I hope this helps someone!

[@KGDiscGolf]

29...if gripping counts.. 30

[@gregdorius5917]

30 grips

[@steveconti2408]

"grip" 27 times. "grips" 2 times and "gripping" 1 time...total 30 times. great video!

I've never understood the '360' technique. It does not appear to truly add anything to a shot, but if people 'think' they help, so be it.

[@titledisc6486]

well actually it is 31 (30 in the video and once more in the comment asking us to count) enjoyed the video, you cracked me up AND likely further deteriorated my game as now I HAVE to go jack around with my grip (dangit!)

[@reynolds022]

1st 360 at the end of the video earned a sun from me 😂

[@Infinitediscs]

Much appreciated

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

Grip grip grip grip grip…. And rip

[@itsnickboland]

Downloaded a clicker app just to keep track and I believe you said "grip" 30 times!

[@Lankybrit52]

You said grip a zillion times, man. Good video.

[@markhumphrey8894]

I can't believe I just ripped a putter 200ft on a rope with the tight grip. Going to have to build callouses though. No wobble. The harder I grip the disc the faster I have to spin and the disc goes father. A lucid Truth 280ft in 40* weather. Can't imagine 70*. this is exciting!

[@andrestorres1799]

I got 27 “grips”! Am I right!?
