The X Step Killer | There's a Good Chance You're Doing This Wrong!

FWIW: I’m gonna be fine financially guys. But it would be cool if you bought from us. FWIW2: Mikey is actually jacked to be naturally high.

My car just broke down and needed $6k too but the car is worth less than that so there's no way I'm doing that

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

@ Yeah. It’s one of those situations where the car is not worth that much but you can’t buy used for cheaper either. Vehicle problems are a good thing to have.

[@SINW]

That was the GREATEST ad in youtube history and I'm not joking. Well done Mikey.

[@ioweutube2]

Absolutely wild ad break! Good job Mikey 🎉🎉

[@Buffalodude1]

What an incredible ad break. Respect.

[@dzedajev]

This was the best ad read of all time

[@DonutshackDiscGolf]

His shirt at the beginning had me 😂 “disc golf po tour” 0:03

[@styxkeeper]

That ad was unhinged as fuck. Loved it. Had the Gyropalooza boxed contained a bit more interesting discs, you'd have my money fellas.

[@TheWunshot]

Bro.. That was such a simple fix to a "forever" mistake. I literally was just teaching my wife on Saturday that she should be moving her final step diagonally to get the stagger. Thanks!

[@daverussell5455]

That's the first time I ever re-watched a disc golf video just to see the commercial break again! Nice one.

[@joequbert]

Best coach and advertisement actor in all the land.

[@SeaBear161]

Honestly I think the raw energy that Mikey shot directly into my brain with that ad break probably gave me an extra 5mph on my throw

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Probably true

[@steveackerman5066]

Son of a gun. I never thought about walking to my like like that. I’m very excited to practice this. Thank you!

[@JuhoPesonen]

This blew my mind. Both the ad break as well as this advice for the second step. Never seen anyone mentioning it before but it made a drastic change.

[@mylesgraber8449]

Pretty sure this (plus maybe 20 other things) is exactly what I need to work on!

[@kiernanhite3216]

Thanks for the tip about the right foot stepping infront of the left foot. I’ve been playing for years now and I never felt comfortable enough to try the X-step, went from 320ft to 350ft in one session.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Congratulations

[@zoonit1869]

That ad was phenomenal, the voice and editing was just 🤌🏼

[@fishblade2]

I really hope that these could be answered or at least a video could be made on them. These are questions that I am not able to get clear answers on no matter how many videos I search through. I am struggle with throwing straight and I'm in the hunt for these answers to help determine which could be off, meet foot position or my pull through/release: 1.) Where should your first be planted on the final step? One the line that you are wanting to throw or over it? I see Paul Ulibarri and Brandon Sides have their heel on the line, while taller individuals such as Simon and Gannon look to step forward some and just over the line. Where should, in general should we be placing the foot actually to throw our line? 2.) When watching your videos on backhand form and getting the power pocket, you look like you are getting your arms up to your chest (pretty high). You have others like Drew Gibson saying to pull more just under your sternum. When I record my throw up higher and pull through with just arm, I am pushing my lead shoulder really high up and it looks incorrect. Where exactly should the pull through be? 3.) Where exactly is our hit point? In a recent lesson you posted teaching nose angle you were showing how you pretend to be smacking a ball off of a tee out in front. Where do we throw out exactly? Is it's more like 11:30 or 10 o'clock?

[@d-clips-in-KC]

Great AD!! Hilarious and captivating

[@Stale_Donutz]

Just came back to rewatch this just so I could listen to Mikey's ad break again.

[@DanoG_74]

I've just been intimidated in to buying 48 Gyropalooza boxes.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

If you buy 48 gyro boxes the 49th is free

[@NJT1013]

Awesome ad. And also, good advice.

[@miketmcquinn]

Damnit! I'm glad no one saw me not hating that ad.

[@BATAngTABA]

Well this just explained why my most common miss is at my 1pm when trying to throw flat. When I bend for a hyzer I naturally stagger much better.

[@mriforgiate]

OMG, that ad break was insanely awesome. 😆

[@rodneylove8023]

Great video. I have pretty much completely changed over from ball golf, to disc golf. In Ball golf, every once in a while I might really uncork one. Just by accident. But in disc golf, that never happens. And I really wonder why. So I very much pay close attention to every single bit of info and advise I can get. This might just be my answer. If not keep em coming.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Another inbound tomorrow

[@lancerobinson8738]

I've been using the drop down line 2000. Can't wait to upgrade to the 3000.

[@Vanbulance89]

Was hyped for the ad break from the comments... did not disappoint 😂

[@242jms]

Yeah we loved the break. Thanks for the fun.

[@jimmybakerbrand]

Awesome dissection

[@jonathantullock6922]

2 observations: 1)that ad break was totally unhinged and creepy! I loved it! Keep raising the bar Mikey! 2) I can assure you that Josh has both the stagger as well as the swagger in that X-step.

[@ronreece89]

I needed this video.

[@creativeflyfishing998]

That has been my main problem and even knowing it I found it difficult to execute until I realized the upper body needs to be involved as well. If you start the swing "around" with your disc, shoulder upper body, the lower body will follow automatically and your timing between upper and lower body can be maintained.

[@josephsmith809]

Best commercial ever.

[@bobbifflesnort2365]

You got me at, "maybe my eyes are attuned to it now." As i progress, i see small details i did not see. Kinda like feeling the disc rim acutely as it leaves my fingertips on a proper release. Little things that are entirely unnoticed if you arent providing yourself with a solid foundation of proper technique.

[@overfiend75]

oy. the 'huge stagger' at 1:47 looks all too familiar. i have been consciously trying to 'back away' from the line during the lead-in step, with the idea of preventing myself from traveling into that huge stagger, and now I wonder if this may be making it worse. time to look at some film. thanks for this.

[@aslan-og]

Love the ad

[@hepdesigns]

I had this problem but I fixed it by starting halfway down the tee-pad on one side and aiming my plant foot to the opposite corner. It’s a common misconception that your walk up needs to be linear with where you are throwing.

[@billcoulter1984]

Good stuff and WHAT an add read!

[@davidschreck6574]

Mikey over here telling Josh all the things I've been working on in my daily form reviews. I see you Mikey 👀

[@DirtyRandy420.0]

That’s wild such a helpful video per usual

[@davidalcaraz8859]

Love the content brother keep it up 🔥

[@yozz54428]

Best add break ever 😂

[@michaelfaber6821]

This instantly made me have better balance.

[@Corrigan65_]

I think an excellent follow up OT video to watch after this is the 2 LANES clip

[@JoshSmith-sr6ks]

excellent vid

[@user-ko1qo7qw8r]

The longest advertisement have been willing to watch ever

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Same

[@benclardy3031]

Where can I sign up for the Po Tour? Sounds right up my alley.

[@jakefoust79]

Do you think on your final plant that being on your toe on your back foot can help? I’ve noticed that I fall on my brace when I don’t focus on it and instead go on the side of my foot. Great video though because I wasn’t noticing that second step

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Yes it does make a difference but more so because of the implications it has on balance.

[@silverfoxdiscgolf]

was this video made JUST to air the ad??? Cool!

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Video filmed like a month ago. Ad created in Mikey’s mind yesterday

[@TraeBumpus]

I want to buy the box. Man Mikey damn that was good lol

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

*Palpatine voice* Do it!

[@AramisChallenger]

What was that dope music in the cool ad come from? Can't see any credits in the description so a guess is you done it yourselves? Really need to know guys, the sounds are awesome!

[@Slinkysees]

such a spooky ad break

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

👻

[@thejoats7264]

is this avoidable by moving more (not completely) diagonally?

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

You could do that. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it.

[@AlexAtterbury]

Came for the advice, only remember the ad break.

[@hoodrich4375]

Well. I guess thats how you get me to watch an ad

[@ericwalker5204]

One of the few ppl to pull off looking like they're 15 yrs old and 60 yrs old at the same time

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

I detect no lies

[@ansonlong3439]

Came to learn about the x-step, now the only thing I learned is I must buy gyro boxes from Mikey… 😅

[@bradbaker5707]

I wasn't going to buy a gyropalooza box but I don't feel like I have a choice now

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

You have a choice! But you know we’ll sell you one if you want. It really, actually is up to you.

[@anderschristianhaldpederse8472]

At the video with the guy inside doing tech disc numbers - I think it was regarding throwing nose down ? - you tell him to rotate the wrist or “turn the key”- as I understand it ? But seeing some other coaches, Discdoctor amongst other, they do not recommend this, “adding more variables” to get timed correct… I’m a confusing stuff or misunderstanding this concept ?

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

I obviously don’t think it is too many variables. Many sports use a similarly complex movement with great accuracy. The tennis serve comes to mind

[@SpinDedyes]

Haha best add 😂

[@jeremiedavis9522]

Awesome ad read, but how did you get your hands on 2025 Gyro boxes already, or is this a pre-pre-pre-order?

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

It’s a pre order

[@zoRkilla]

Personally I feel like adding the extra first left foot step with shoulders open to the staggered right foot step with shoulders closed isnt even worth teaching people until they have muscle memoried the stagger for when they brace. I feel like sweeping your shoulders from open to closed just adds more problems than it gains distance for newer players.

[@MeantForNothing]

i have a really hard time not falling on to my brace leg and just putting all my weight on to it way to quickly

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

It’s tough

[@dothisforfun]

The Doc

[@bobevans666]

we need a new series of just ads

[@wintunewrep]

Wow that ad was trippy

[@micahwingell]

Let’s go I don’t do this I should be hitting 700 in no time

[@pyrizposey9140]

Yesssssssssssss

[@pyrizposey9140]

First time buyer, don't let me down boys!

[@OjaiBonsai]

I had to skip that add-it stops at 4:38. I felt like I was in the Matrix

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Red or blue ?

[@JTygerAU]

Dr Disrespect vibes. Is that a good thing? Definitely entertaining though!

[@Dellis0312]

X step info was informative. Ad break convinced me to shop elsewhere.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

foundationdiscs.com

[@Sniffiez]

[@justjay3750]

the tyler af is hilarious is that really him talking lmao?

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Truly his voice

[@justjay3750]

​@@OverthrowDiscGolf he clearly should be voice acting in anime😂

[@Steve-hv1bg]

Thats like a 2min+ ad in a 7 min video... good thing for SponsorBlock to autoskip the in video ads

[@benclardy3031]

Maybe one day they'll create a blocker for whiney comments. Here's hoping! 🤞

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

TLDR/Spongebob Blocked It: Buy Gyropalooza Boxes

[@HaikesXO]

Just take my debit card okay. I don’t want any problems
