Matsuno v Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) at the World Club Championships 2022 

Haha yeah

oh i just commented the same thing...

I wonder if that’s how the game is played in Japan because often the travel occurs from a complete standstill on the throw. It’s like they take a step then throw vs throwing on a step while keeping the pivot foot down. This seems more like a fundamental travel vs after the catch you are milking a couple of steps to slow down.

i noticed matsuno was travlling as well. like i was so confused at first cuz hes a lefty and thoght that was his normal pivots or something but nah hes def travelling but it didnt get called so idk lol

2:47 in particular, he's just strollin around with the disc

I agree with you although there is still the point that you are allowed to take 3 steps before establishing a pivot foot when you have momentum, although a lot of these pro clips have pros taking more then 3 steps however maybe that’s just a pro rule that’s different.

Just looked like a lot of fairly obvious traveling in whole from the team in blue. Like a lot of hopping bolth feet off the ground can't tell which foot is their pivot bc they're shifting bolth feet constantly with disc in hand. Idk bro. Probably like NBA and FIBA. Different ruleset and officiating of rules. Happens.

Really annoying because as a lefty handler I know how good this move is, and you definitely don't have to travel for it to work, you just have to do it as the last step of your slow down. Defenders instinctively move to respect the power position righty forehand and you can pretty much do anything to them after that because you havent actually established a pivot, so you can pick either foot as it suits the situation and get a strong play from there. However, once the pivot is established like in these clips it's simply a travel, I think a lot of players are scared to call travels on lefties because they get confused and dont want to risk making an incorrect call, which I also see a lot of as a lefty handler. Bottom line: lefty is so good already, you shouldnt need to travel to have a big advantage.

you don't even need to change behind the back. Yes the offhand backhand seems to be getting more more common.

Y would you. It was mentioned, move on

A lot better. Prime Matsuno was something else.

and he only mentions these violations when it happens to favor pony. he whined all vid long about buzz. annoying af. even defends mkbhd's bad disc read. lol. what a "fair" commentary
