How to Throw a Forehand in Ultimate Frisbee 

On release “thumb back and pinkie forward” was a great tip for me. Lots of good instruction besides that. Thank you.

Thank you! I should have made this a while ago!!

Yeh Nick! I’ll see you sharing these Rowan gifted gold information next time at beginner training!

I love frisbee, and have gotten my family into it. I throw pretty good, but definitely wanted to learn this technique. I agree, this is the best tutorial that I've come across. Thanks, and I subscribed.

Dude gym class is worse at teaching than RU-vid I learned nothing and everybody at my school sucks because of the horrible teaching

Michael Garrity then why are u in that school? Maybe they are smart and you’re just dumb

VOID_LILBRICK no I’m serious everybody at my school agrees that the teaching is horrible so I’m trying to learn out of school because throwing frisbees are fun

Same and everyone is trash

LOL SAME

Yup

Y e s✨

Nope

Try the back throws-

Yes

Airbounce flick!? respect :)

Exactly my plan, now I need to make a backhand one :)

Thank you! I figured it was time for this tutorial :)

Thank you!

Same... I even learned foot blocks before I learned forehands, kinda shameful lol

When are you going to invite me out so I can teach them in person!?

not wrong!

just trying to help out the center o-line handlers of the world!

will do!

frr

I watched the Bro-Tips many, many times and they taught me a lot too!

@@RowanMcDonnell See - I coulda been you, if they'd had those earlier. Thanks for doing what you do!

Yes I thought about diving in deep, but kept it to the basics for now. Might do a advanced follow up but not in the near future! good points

In general, most people describe the 2 finger grip as "power grip". I'm pretty sure it's because you get the best power/spin possible :)

You want your strongest finger on the edge of the disc to create to most power and stability. Unless your ring finger is stronger then your middle finger it's inefficient.(no body's ring finger is stronger then their middle finger)

@@curtisclack9067 I think the 2 is slightly better than the 3. but not opposed to it!

Ultimate Gloves are great when it's wet!

slightly more outside in, and don't try to throw it as far!

@@RowanMcDonnell why do you like more OI in wet conditions?

As I learned it, making layouts is not so much a technique you learn but more something you figure out by doing it. That might start off with just falling to the disc but that's already a great starting point. The technique comes with the experience in this case. The hardest part of making layouts is probably just start doing it. The best way in my experience is just to really convince yourself that you wanna have the disc and that you can have the disc even though it seems out of reach at first glance. The best layouts seem impossible, especially in the beginning, even for the player who is making them, but when I notice myself giving up because the disc is out of reach anyway I always try to convince myself that I can still have it and not always, but sometimes I am suddenly laying on the ground with the disc in my hands. I believe that's also why people are making more layouts in important games because they wanna have the diclsc so badly that they never give up. If you can get that mindset, making the layouts themself just simply goes naturally, without thinking about it. My worst layouts I make are the ones where I think in advance that I am gonna layout: those never work. Also, depending on where you're living it might be a great idea to try and join beach tournaments or pick ups. Here in the Netherlands almost every player first learnes to layout during one of our beach tournaments and then brings it to the grass. I hope you can get something out of this tips. Good luck and always play more ultimate!!

yeah🤚from Japan we started ultimate in gym class today

What part of your hand? If it's the meat between the thumb and index finger, take a rest and try again in a day or two when its a little less sore. It'll eventually strengthen in a few weeks so it doesn't hurt.

Bryan Hunt that’s where is hurts but I keep trying it again and still hurts. Maybe it’s the way I’m holding it. I’m holding it right but still hurts

@@shayonmobile7264 how long have you been holding it that way? It took me 3 weeks to have close to no pain

Bryan Hunt nearly a week

@@shayonmobile7264 hang in there. It's a weird muscle

Yes

a small drag after the throw isn't really a travel!

Do finger pushups (I'm not a physical trainer nor do I do ultimate frisbee don't quote me on this)
