Very impressive its seems like most collage throwers who excell at shot put often use the rotational technique i mean you dont see many gliders throwing big like this well in the U.S. anyway
@rketer no shit cause gliders are juicing euros..... or they are 6'10 and if your 6'10 in america your playing basketball and making money like little wayne
he has a really good chance at the all time record set by Barnes. I cant waite to see him throw in the olympics, the trial throw is only 60 feet and he's already throwing that far.. amazing
i threw against this guy in highschool, he went to my rival school. he was a monster then and its obvious he still is. congrats ryan on all your accomplishments.
Ryan is only a sophomore at Arizona State and he set the National Division I Indoor Shot Put Record at 71'-03.50" on March 15, at the NCAA Division I 2008 Indoor Championship held at the Univ. of Arkansas in Fayetteville. Hopefully someone will post a video of that toss. Congratulations Ryan!
I got to see that throw and my coach got a video of it. I'll have to see if i can get ahold of it to put it up. It was pretty insane. Not only that, but this guy is a real class act. He was pretty humble about it afterwards, which is good to see.
How tall did Ryan look to you. I guessed him at 6' 1" but he is lised on the Arizona State's website as 6'-3". As broad as he he he may be taller than he appears. Thanks
He's def. 6'3 I'm 6'2 and he was taller than me when i saw him face to face. I was throwing weight though and had throwing shoes, so his shoes might have added a little in comparison. Either way, Big dude
On March 1 Ryan threw 70'-5.25 in Seatle ranking him No. 3 in the world to date and he still has room for improvement.
He oversteps his right foot and is not getting full use from his legs and he swings his left arm wide. He is just so explosive and strong that he can compensate for it. When he bends his left elbow, and hits lands his right foot better. He will hit 75 feet! He's very impressive!
In 2007 Noah's PR was 67'-5.5". I don't know if he has a better throw to date. The interesting thing is that Noah and Ryan Whiting are both 6'-1" and Adam Nelson is 6'.
The spinning technique has allowed smaller/quicker athletes to compete with the big boys.
DAMN...
He's good.
