The BEST Way to get Open Upline in Ultimate Frisbee

- In this video, I break down one of my go to moves to gain separation on my defender and get open up the line. I go into detail about the hesitation or "hesi" move that I like to use and what I am seeing on the field. This can be a really useful tool to add especially when playing against over eager or physical defenders.

I highly enjoy these sorts of comparisons to other sports. The facts of the matter are that Ultimate strategy is most likely still in its "Heisman just invented the forward pass" phase, especially where so many offenses used now seem to still run off of the theory that there will be players not able to routinely break difficult marks or throw long-range with precision. By understanding what other sports do, I hope that we can gain a greater vision of what is possible, and what we should be striving for, as a sport and as individual players or coaches.
Specifically to this video, how do you counter this variety of move? Just play a little bit looser, and bite less? Disc-guard more and face-guard less? Just be faster than your matchup lol?
I would try and keep your hips more open as the defender, so that you can not over-commit and burst either way more easily once the cut is made. Stopping a good handler cut is pretty hard in general, but that’s what I try to do.
I think Elan gave a great answer here! Keeping your hips open is crucial. As soon as you commit your hips in one direction, the advantage is to the offense. Similar to other sports like a football cornerback, the faster you can move with your hips open, the better you'll be able to recover and stick close to the person you are guarding.
This is an elite move🔥🔥
Thanks for the video, Jack! Hope you are doing well
Thanks man, some great content as always. Be well!
Love it Jack! makes lots of sense and I think coming from other sports its great to see the translation. Keep up the good stuff!
The problem at 2:02 is that if the handler and thrower are not familiar with each other, the thrower might decide to throw to space around to the break side just as the handler bursts upline after the hesitation.
To be fair, the video explicitly says that this works best with players that know each other well and hence expect the hesitation move.
Love your content Jack! Really helpful to make ultimate moves for my Frisbee manga in the future.
Excellent.
Loved this! Excellent lesson!!!
Great man we need more of this
Loved this! I've tried implementing this move myself in the past but hearing you break it down and compare it to other sports gave me a whole new understanding of it! I've got some new cues to try now! Thanks!
Glad to hear it!
look at the defender's hips.. which they were facing @3:54... they were a tell of how one can cut...
Excellent content you produce here! Would love to hear you opinion on effective switches and when to stick to your oponent
I'll try to make a video on that soon!
I forgot about that haircut from nationals... Perhaps another reason you were able to get open?
Thanks for the breakdown. Loving it. Can we get your thoughts on handler defense next? Or defense in general? Like is "overpursuing" always bad? If you're shutting one side down don't you still want to contest the other side? And also what about letting throws go to the open side along the forced sideline, that way you can trap the thrower? I find it really effective in rec ulti, but are you club and pro level players good enough to break and get it off the sideline? Thanks!
I definitely need to come out with some defensive videos soon!
Hi Jack I hope you stay in the audl ima be there soon
3:27, that's how I tore my Achilles 😢
