Something else I don't see a lot of people mention is that when you really need to get up for a disc you should use one hand, allows you to reach the furthest. Think of a triangle with one shoulder and both sides of the bottom of your torso. Going up with one hand allows you to use the hypotenuse of that triangle as part of your effective height instead of just the vertical leg of it. In a lot of highlight reel skies you see one handed catches like this.
I'm about 5'7 so I need everything I can get, and its often still not enough. More work needed.
thanks for this, vertical is really important in frisbee
Glad it helped!
Great pointers, my dude! Definitely bringing those to my game this summer :D
Thanks so much for this great content mate
You are smart af bro lol
Awesome...bro did a great job.. Want to learn more
Thanks!!!
You're welcome! Are you jumping higher Dalia?
Ryan Lowe I know I am 😃
That pistol shrimp has got tonnes of views through this! ;P
I bet eh!
Reminds me of a video I saw on Masaai warriors jumping super high even without using their arms. It said : advanced plyometrics
Yes, absolutely! Those guys are examples of extremely short stretch-shortening cycles in action. I've become aware that I'm pretty slow though a depth jump, for example - and so I'm working on that now to see if it will increase my vertical (even though I'm 37 years old at this point). Even if it doesn't, the feeling of getting springier is fun unto itself 😃

Who's the dude in pink in your thumbnail? He looks unreal
The sexiest man I know... 100%. Too bad he missed last night's game though, we got slaughtered!
Have any tips for teaching people to cut and changing direction with a burst of speed? We have lots of new players and they basically have only one speed. Slow jog.
The slow jog! So common, and worth a blog article. I'm working on that now, I'll have way more information than you need soon. I'll post the link here when it's ready.

nice vid, any tips for sand? )
Thanks for the comment! It'll be harder from sand as you're almost always jumping with uneven footing. Single leg exercises will develop explosive strength in both legs and overcome any "cheating" that may have been happening when jumping on an even surface. I cover a TON of explosive single leg exercises here frisbeethrows.com/ultimate-frisbee-workout-make-you-unstoppable/ although if I were you specifically, I'd magic myself up a couple hobbits to stand on haha.
I'm only here for pistol shrimp facts
Why you gotta do me like that Ryan Lowe? Got me in the picture I am 6'2 your vert is stupid.
