Huck and Pull Technique Review: Episode 1

Get your throw analyzed! frisbeethrows.com/ultimate-fr...
Julia sent me this footage to help assess her throw and with her go ahead I decided to share it with you guys. I've had a number of people send me footage for review, and I'm finding that there is a lot of overlap on the advice I'm giving - so hopefully everyone can benefit from these reviews if I make them public!
One correction in my video! At 8:36 I say to stand more "upright" but that definitely isn't what I mean. I meant to say: keep your upper body tilted like that, but to achieve that tilt don't let your back bend at all, hinge at your hips instead.
Apologies for the inconsistent audio - I was expecting my USB mic to pick up my voice better but I clearly needed to speak up when farther away from it.

I’m an avid ultimate fan and disc golf fan actually. I have improved my backhand in disc golf a bunch over the last year, although I still struggle with even reaching like 300ft. Anyways, I’ve been playing a ton of ultimate lately and really wanted to improve my pull, since that is the one area of my game where I struggle. This video and some of the advice you have has helped. Especially the remark about how the disc has to be in line with your forearm and your wrist should be precocked. Anyways, thanks for the great analysis. It’s really helpful!

It's funny how almost everything that the run up for ultimate is completely opposite for disc golf. Disc golf is all about keeping everything as simple as possible. I really need to start throwing an ultimate Frisbee again. I've been practicing so much disc golf, I was actually able to reach 600 feet today. It was a down hill over a pond shot. Still love ultimate so much more though!

Ryan, I would love to see you analyze some of the farthest throwers in disc golf (e.g. Simon Lizotte) and tell us what we can transfer to ultimate hucks. There is a lot of good videos on driving technique out there, and I would be surprised if some of it didn't apply to ultimate as well. Loving both sports equally :)

Good idea Luis! I'll have to see what principles are transferrable for upcoming vids, thanks for the idea!
