I notice I’m a lot better at disc golf if I remember to stick my butt out (athletic position) 😂 Seriously a huge difference that I try to mention on form reviews.
The grip epiphany is huge! Getting that snap feels so good. And idk about you but I noticed once I figured out the snap, my discs got a lot more spinny ground play.
Thank you very much!! I play shadow Pines very often and I’ve been working on a lot of things. Your seven tips really seem to help. I can’t wait till I go out and try them!
See simons form in the OT slowmotion from a couple of years ago at 4:43 bottom left of the video his left leg clearly pushes in and under his body as a counter weight, it does not rotate at all, until the disc has left his hand, most, if not all throwing 600ft+ does this (tried to link the video, but my comment got deleted).
I'm just half way, but that's already some if not the best video I've watched on the topic, good job and thank you because I see a lot of similarities with my (bad) form!
Question about "leaning over the disc" in regards to the pros doing it -- couldn't another explanation be that they lean to get more hyzer angle, because they have the power to flip most discs to flat? When I lean that much, it's hard to release the disc on a flat angle, so I'm wondering if the pros leaning is more of a CAUSE vs an EFFECT of their power (if that makes sense?)
I think it’s a bit of both. In order to throw anhyzer you obviously can’t be leaning forward a bunch. While being in that position does lead to a more hyzer release, being in that position also allows you to put a lot more power in your throw.
is "rounding" having an arch in your back during a throw or having a rounded path once forward motion starts? I have always understood it as the latter but now I'm wondering if I've misunderstood the term for 3 years
if you watch Simon throw he intentionally slaps/punch his off hand into his hip, he doesn't do anything fancy but seems to be a great and simple Q to deal with the off hand.
I think pinching more with your first finger and thumb, causes the release of the disc to rotate around that point … and that point is closer to the rim with the right grip, which is a longer lever and makes it spin faster.
Leaning back can definitely lead to a lot of these other faults. Especially keeping the rear leg on the ground, obviously leaned back posture puts the rear leg lower in relation to the ground than the front leg. As for the off arm I think there is something to getting it back in front. A lot of tall long armed pros don’t need to commit to a double move to bomb distance but my theory is that biomechanically the more you can bring your rear shoulder in as you lead into your swing it sets your throwing shoulder into a more anatomically correct position to take a full swing while keeping integrity at the wrist hand. (Basically the further back the rear shoulder is when you swing the harder it is to keep the throwing arm from internally rotating to alleviate pressure through the follow through.
I've watched a salmagundi of disc videos and this one has really helped me. Taking the slightly bend forward athletic stance really registered with me and this one point improved my accuracy immensely. This is starting my 4th year and am feeling pretty good.
Yoooooo that Knocked Loose shirt is a massive W!
arf arf
I came here to comment the same thing lol.
It’s a feeling I can’t remember
Came here to say the same thing!
Vid is jampacked with good intel. Thanks a lot for sharing this. Something for everyone here. One o these in particular smacked me upside the dome.

Loving your shirt! Knocked Loose is heavy in my disc golf playlist
Pretty solid tips! You didn't include a throw though. Would have liked to see the difference as I remember your old video.

Great video big dawg. U got yourself a new subscriber
The very end just isn't true. Look at Simon, or Paul McBeth at impact. One leg is behind the other.
Great tips. Thanks for helping my game.

Don't hug yourself. Elbow away from body at all times
These are all great observations! Thank you.
Dope shirt! Anytime I’m looking for a breakdown to get kicked off with an ARF ARF I go to Knocked Loose immediately!
Leaning back and the grip issue are two of main problems rn.

Lot of great tips in here, Tyler! Keep up the great work!
Did you know your last name means 'Science' in Finnish? I found that quite funny in this context. Loved the vid! Keep up the good work.
haha yeah a few people have told me

really great tips, super well articulated

the latter
Thank you
Let's Throooooooooooow!!
Nice shirt bro!
😋 "promo sm"
You do know that "Tiede" means Science in finnish?
yes!
