    he looks and sounds like his name is brodie.

    @carsonblakechris The beat was created by a friend... trying to get him to upload it. Sorry for the wait

    Try releasing the disc more vertical. Also, the more spin you can generate (wrist snap) it will hold its flight better.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +4

    @FlawlessPlay Both great throws in your arsenal. I will add it to the list.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 12 lety +3

    @Andrewcunningmusic thats known as the double helix hammer...you have to angle the disc more vertically on release to make sure it doesn't do that...but for long hammers its sometimes ok for a double helix

  • @JewelsCoin
    @JewelsCoin Před 10 lety +8

    Thanks, this really helps, I've always wanted to learn the way you throw.

  • @jfk9454
    @jfk9454 Před 8 lety +6

    Thx!!! Tried this throw and during ultimate frisbee in gym ( but there was goals at the ends to shoot it in) i scored 3goals out of the 4 goals for our tema using this throw!

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +2

    @boombox129 you got it! on the list! thanks for the suggestion!

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +3

    @Youknowhubbard tri's, bi's chest, and back for the upper body. Also having a strong and flexible shoulder is great!

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +3

    @havone2 With the hammer I see some people pick up their right foot and some people keep it down. Do whatever comes natural because after playing around with it, for me it didn't change any part of my throw.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +2

    @gibsonsg0425 One thing you can check to see if your doing properly is the angle of the disc on the release. For big hammers (40 yards plus) you want the disc more vertical on release. So if the disc is double helixing like you say, you may want to tweak the angle a bit and release the disc more vertically.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 12 lety +4

    @lax8196 try throwing the disc with more a different angle to the ground. Like flatter would be best

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +2

    @Prozakk08 It sounds like when your releasing the disc it isn't vertical enough. By changing that it will help from having the disc turn over. Try that and see if that helps the disc from turning over.
    Now with regards to having the disc fly out to the left and curve back. That deals with my arm motion. Too hard to explain just in writing. Would you like a video on that?

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +3

    @wackNLR2003 slightly but the angle of the disc at release will help you more...try throwing the disc more vertical

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 12 lety +4

    The backhand pull...

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +4

    @TheSean228 Haha good catch! Didn't even see that. I did something pretty sneaky to fix it. See if you can figure it out lol.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +2

    @krakatawa1 no but the nike carbon flywire are the best cleats i have ever tried

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 12 lety +1

    @ishue i generate all my power from my upper body...no need for me to really use my lower body...but taking a step forward will help you get more distance

  • @brooklynyte4ever
    @brooklynyte4ever Před 11 lety

    thanks for the tips brodie.appreciate it.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +3

    @AbSoluteZeWoah With the hammer you want to do what comes natural for you. So i wouldn't say there is a right and wrong way of pivoting. Feel it out and do what works best. For me I don't really move my right foot that much but it also depends on the type of hammer

  • @Zamnek
    @Zamnek Před 11 lety +1

    Great videos! I liked the game clips at the end. I'm going out for my first practice today.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +1

    @Lerkki To be honest I have seen the most different types of variations when it comes to the the lower body. So I would honestly say do what works best for you. For me thats being kind of static but using a lot of torque in my hips and core. Its an awkward motion to start with because when throwing a ball with your left hand your taught to step forward with your right foot. And in frisbee left handlers right foot is their pivot foot. So just do what comes natural and is comfortable to you.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 12 lety +1

    If you are doing the Frisbee Trick Shot Challenge I would watch this!

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +3

    @mywomanisbig probably has to do with you not snapping your wrist and forearm enough. Really work on that snap and that will help generate spin you will need to have a great flying disc.

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +3

    @boombox129 i like the idea...what is the staker?

  • @BrodieSmith
    @BrodieSmith  Před 13 lety +1

    @MinnesotaVikingz so its floating down to slow? is that what your saying?

  • @kekelaward
    @kekelaward Před 5 lety

    I used a hammer throw to great effect when I played double disc at the University of Hawaii back in the early 80's. I had to be throwing it wrong, cause instead of straightening out at the end, the disc would stall, then drop straight down, but it was totally uncontrolled, so it was very hard to judge where it was going to land, so it gave my opponents fits. After seeing this, I guess I'll go dig out my old discs and give it another shot. Thanks for the memories. Really good times...playing all night, quaffing beers and burning doobs. Yeah, really good days.

  • @boombox129
    @boombox129 Před 13 lety

    @brodiesmith21 I believe it's where you grip the rim of the frisbee right-side up with thumb on the inside and index on the outside, and then use your thumb for leverage and throw it from you neck...if that makes sense. Also, a video with basic catches and trick catches would be awesome.

  • @JoeMamaUltimate
    @JoeMamaUltimate Před 11 lety

    Many of us have grown up throwing balls where the main throwing motion comes from your arm. As a result, when you throw a hammer it feels more natural to use your arm(as if you're throwing a baseball). On another note, try throwing fully with your arm with a mark-you'll find that snapping your wrist is the only way to get off that hammer without smacking your mark in the face on the follow through. It will also allow you to get more spin on it, allowing it to fly further and bite the wind more.

  • @AbSoluteZeWoah
    @AbSoluteZeWoah Před 13 lety

    Hey Brodie, is there any pivoting in this throw? In your video it looks like you're getting the power from the shoulder and hip rotation but is there any pivoting or stepping out for this throw? Like when your throwing right hand flick you step out with your right foot and throw it, but do you do anything like this for the hammer? It always seems like I have awkward footing when throwing this.

  • @Krallelat
    @Krallelat Před 12 lety

    Good videos. Easy to understand. But in a game there is going to be called a travel on the last throw for sure. even if it's too close to call, that motion with your leg is enough for alot of players to call it on.

  • @MrGIove5000
    @MrGIove5000 Před 12 lety

    @samboyadzu try using more wrist flick and less arm. Practice with shorter distances to get the solid flight and build up from there.
