2011 was a huge year for me – I was flown to Mexico in June to coach Malaki UFC, I competed in the WFDF World Overall Flying Disc Championships in July in Fort Collins, Colorado, I competed in the Skyhoundz World Canine Disc Championships in September in Chattanooga, Tennessee and I was flown to Beijing, China in December to attempt a Guinness World Record. I’m excited for what 2012 has in store and I give you a preview in this video.
Also, I’m running my first ever contest. To get all the details on how to enter, click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qD2gI-gqO4U&t=23m33s
In this video from DiscSportsNation, Dan “Stork” Roddick gives his thoughts on what the future of frisbee will look like. He doesn’t think that disc sports should be commercialized like other sports – pods that exists in all areas which allow people to play seem to be the best way.
Dan “Stork” Roddick is a long-time disc sport champion and organizer in both the U.S. and internationally.
Stork was an early star of the game of Ultimate with college champion Rutgers University (with a record of 45-1), where he was Irv Kalb’s favorite scoring target, and he was a winner of national and world championships in individual events including disc golf, freestyle and accuracy.
Similar to Ultimate Project #2, Michael Lawler (former Brute Squad coach) analyzes footage from the the Brute / Riot game at 2010 Worlds. This video looks at the 10 seconds leading up to the throws and tries to determine of the throw choices were good or not without knowing the outcome of the play.

John “Friz Whiz” Kirkland
A tremendous all-around competitor, Kirkland was voted the disc athlete of the seventies. He won the men’s World Overall Championships in 1977 and finished second on three other occasions, as well as winning several individual world titles.
He is still very active in the scene and continues to inspire future world champions.

I was contacted by a television network in China and they’d like me to fly to China to attempt some frisbee world records on their show live in front of their audience.
However, the world records I suggested won’t work so I need some creative ideas on what I could pitch them for a frisbee world record attempt.
Send your ideas to rob@ultimaterob.com or leave them in a comment.
Thanks!
