[@TruePhil]

1. back hand, foot across body and throw
-palm on outside rim, all fingers curled, shoulder, elbow and wrist lever. wrist snap. disc on a line.
2. forehand. throwing to out to side
-2 fingers on each side of rim. thumb pinching index finer, firm grip no space between hand and frisbee
-elbow and wrist lever. keep frisbee flat, elbow back wrist back, elbow forward wrist forward.
3. Hammer skipped
-same grip as forehand. overhead, wrist snaps forward like football and follow through

Thank you!! We’ve been practicing and I’ve discovered that the forehand is used more than I thought, so I’m happy to have some tips for how to do it since my few attempts would’ve benefitted from this video for sure 😆

[@silverwolf1010]

if your doing this for P.E the answers are down below
Questions:1) Identify 3 coaching points to remember for the forehand throw in ultimate.
2) Identify 3 coaching points to remember for the backhand throw in ultimate.
3) Identify 2 coaching points to remember for the hammer throw in ultimate.
4) Can you pick out any similarities in all three types of throw?
5) Of the 3 types of throws learned today, which throw do you feel is the easiest to learn and why?
Answers:1)
a)grip frisbee with two fingers on each side
b)step to the side your holding frisbee with
c)keep hand facing up when throwing the disc
2)
a)use shoulder,elbow and wrist lever
b)put palm on the outside of the rim
c)step across the body follow with shoulder than elbow and finish with wrist
3)
a)throw it like a football
b)two fingers on each side
4)
well the first similarity is the obvious one you use your hand for all the throws
5)
i think the easiest is the back hand and that is because even when i was younger that's how i threw it it's just second nature to throw it like that it's kind of programed into me.

not once does he show a throw, seriously? it's like teaching us how to cook by pointing at the ingredients.

[@maccthew]

my teacher decided that instead of making an assignment she wants us to directly send he the video for some reason

[@josephfroehlich9655]

Why did they delete all their videos last night? Made a presentation using a few of their videos that were on their channel last night. wake up in the morning and their all gone??

[@radiantlighttech]

New policies went into effect as of January 1st, so CZcams creators have to change all of their videos as to whether children will be watching or not. Hefty penalties if not done correctly, from what I understand.
