HESK Digital - Ultimate Needs a Name Change

Great article. As a person who has never played ultimate frisbee. But watching a few games on YouTube the name doesn't do it justice. Go with something like flat ball implies its like football which is the type of audience I would imagine you would want to appeal to. You could also just mesh the two names and call it Ultimate Flat ball?

Maxime - More Surprising Findings from the World of Biomechanical Analysis!

Hey Melissa! I understand the most of the explications on this page, but I didn't understand what's wrong with the hands shaking? I mean, this is really how beginners throw I remarked that one coaching cue I constantly heard about is "use your wrist when you flick the disc" or something like that. And... You mean that we need to use the flipping the pie... I don't really understand well how to transfer it to a throwing mechanics... I mean... By your explanation I refer myself to the flick throw mechanics Rowan McDonnell show in one of his video. He take the disc, do an abduction with his forearm (at this moment, the disc is up ready to throw like an archer who is ready to shoot, and the forearm face down in a ~45 degrees), so his wrist is in a pronation position (the pie is going down) and when he throw he place his wrist in a supination to proantion position. I tried to figure out the entire throwing mechanics. He explain here how to do this at home (to practice the motion) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49u9-IznjRc
