The Correct Grip For Sidearm/Forehand Grip & The Most Common Mistake 

Let's throw! This is the greatest sport on Earth

How in the heck… I am curious to see this.

@@JohnnyD5 I hang knuckle (the one near the web between the thumb and index finger) of my index finger over the edge of the rim and the knuckle near the tip over the edge as well. The middle knuckle floats freely. Then I clamp down on the top of the rim with a death grip with my thumb. I’ve built up a callous on the first knuckle mentioned that helps. I wipe my disc off with a damp microfiber towel and then dry it with a dry microfiber towel to make it more grippy. I showed this to Avery Jenkins and Simon Lizotte at a clinic the put on at the Collegiate National Championship about 10 years ago and left them scratching their heads.

@@BoKnowsDiddly dude i need to try this. do you use the same grip on shorter/touchier shots as well?

Sounds like you're throwing an upside down thumber :D Very cool@@BoKnowsDiddly

@@noah4987 yes. In fact, for short shots, I will often use a Prodigy X1 and aim way to the left because it’s super overstable and doesn’t go far before it hooks hard to the right. The only disadvantage is that a lot of plastics just aren’t grippy enough. They come out early. My favorite plastic for this throw is Prodigy 400.

I predominantly throw forehand and my biggest tip for footing would be make it simple. Only 3 or 4 steps, figure which leg you want to start with, and once you jam the lead foot down drive the disc through just like a baseball pitcher.

Never thrown a baseball or watched it for form (always thrown balls bad), direct to some good instruction of that part as well ;)
