  • @Jakburton44

    I'll never understand how they throw the disc so high and keep the nose down. Anytime I try it I get the nose up and it just fights back early. That said I've never been able to throw like these guys even when I was younger. I'm pretty happy still being able to throw a low flip about 350-400 but damn these guys can rip it.

  • @bobbyrecher1
    @bobbyrecher1 Před 8 lety +13

    That's not OAT. The disc's center of mass is above the rim. The consequence of this is that when you throw, a torque is applied to the disc similar to you trying to touch opposite ends of the flight plate together. This torque is quickly applied and quickly released which causes an initial wobble. It always exists, but it is most noticeable in those who can throw over 500

      Nah, it's OAT. The angle of the wrist and disc is not the same as your forearm. No, this is not a criticism for DW, but off-axis torque is something that can be mitigated by even the furthest throwers on the planet. But when you consider the fact that a person is trying to simply throw an object as far as they can, some "techniques" take a backseat. But most pros probably throw 80-90% power, and this is max distance. Getting a disc to travel this far takes multiple attempts, as the angles and releases are rarely perfect.

    @QactisX Před 6 lety +2

    Why the disc wobbles and it's not his form being bad:
    Blizzard plastic is Champion plastic that has air in it, same with the Opto Air plastic from Latitude 64, or fission from MVP. The air makes the plastic less dense (155g vs 175g), which makes the blizzard boss SIGNIFICANTLY more pliable than regular champion plastic. This combined with a 45 degree hyzer angle that produces a 14/7/-3/2 flight out of a 13/5/-1/3 rated disc means an extreme amount of torque is being applied to the disc.

      slower, understable discs will help you with increasing your distance, typically people are using too high of speed discs when throwing for distance. speed 9-11 should be good enough for 350+ shots easily.

    • @QactisX
      @QactisX Před 6 lety +4

      Shoot keep throwing your midrange and you can max it at 350, 7 speed can hit 350 no problem. Why do people use a star destroyer 12 speed disc when they can throw it 300 is beyond me. I can get an Axiom Clash (7/5/-1/3) 400 feet. All you need is the biomechanical technique down and you can do it with minimal effort, without hurting yourself.

      The joke is that they would consider it a true measure of how far a disc can be thrown. The pdga should at least establish an 'unassisted' record with strict parameters, similar to any track & field record. Probably nothing more than 5-9 mph gusts. Temperature, altitude & humidity are also possible parameters. Believe me, I love wind & I understand the challenge of using a disc in such wind. I've been windsurfing in high winds for over 35 years, throwing discs my entire life & disc golfing for 10 years. In fact I'm currently injured from icesailing in over 40 mph winds. Aside from technique and a big arm, this "record" primarily relies on extremely high winds similar to the land or water speed sailing records. 126mph(land yacht) & 64mph(kite) respectively. Maybe there should be a disc 'sailing' or 'storm chaser' record & an actual controlled distance record. This current record will be impossible to break until similar conditions are encountered. A simple updraft in such conditions could carry a static(non-spinning) disc hundreds of feet in the air & deposit it a mile away, literally. It's a somewhat meaningless record, but that's just my opinion.

      +quickplaya you do realize he is one of the top in the world at distance throwing, right?

      +quickplaya great, and you're still wrong.

      +quickplaya these are some of the most un-fucking-believable drives I've ever seen. This guy held the world distance record of 836 feet for many years. Those forearm drives are over 400 feet and maybe even 500ft.
      If someone can throw that far, then they're throwing right. It's obvious that you're just jealous.

      He just threw it over 1100 feet. He has the world record again.

    Disc golf is so lame. It's for poor stoners and hippies who can't play or afford real golf.

      yeeeaaaa. I have a nice set of golf clubs and am pretty good too....but I also love playing disc golf....more so in fact than reg golf at this point...its a amazing game that takes a lot of skill and its great that almost anyone with 40$ or so can afford to get started and enjoy the game...not that I haven't spent over probably 2-300$ on discs since ive lost quite a few and had to go thru many to find the ones that work for me but its a sport and a proper one at that....I take it you cant play for shit tho.....so it doesn't surprise me that youre hating....

      My friend commented from my phone. I actually enjoy disc golf and I play real golf. I like real golf a lot more but it's fun going out and making nice throws. I actually got my first ace the other day on at 148 foot hole at a small course here and it felt great. But the majority of people I see are stoner type gypsies playing disc golf. It is fun though

      Hmmm let me see. I've got a million in investments AND a 2 handicap in ball golf. Disc golf is another sport to meet new people and get exercise. I'm guessing you can't get it up without a club....neanderthal.
