Maximum time aloft (MTA) drill (video)

This is a great drill for becoming a better puller. By doing this drill, you will be able to throw the disc longer, higher and more accurately. As well, you will become better at reading the disc while in the air and you can practice your catching. I only show this drill with my backhand but you can also do MTA’s with a forehand.

[...] MTA’s – just like how a puller will practice MTA’s to get height and distance on their throws, so too can you to practice catching. Many times on an MTA, the disc will come in very fast and very blady. This is a great chance to learn to read the disc and learn to catch it. [...]
