2008-05-02 Discus Meeting in Chula Vista, CA

[123tanklin]

ive always wanted to see professional throwers

[CCDHS72]

gerd kanter is a freakin' beast

[SuperOlds88]

I always felt like a great thrower when I imagined wearing  Ben Plucknetts underwear, John Powells socks and Jay Silvesters jock strap.

[sousukedesu]

How should I do to make the throw form beautiful?････

[87PowerMan]

study and watch the pros do it

[87PowerMan]

Question! where exactly do they begin measuring the distance from the ring? I'm doing it for the first time at North Georgia and from the tip of the ring I'm throwing 145 ft. But do I measure from the tip or in the center?

[0nametaken0]

@87PowerMan the tape measure suppose to be pulled pass the center of the ring (to get a accurate and fair reading) but the measurements ends at the edge of the ring

[87PowerMan]

thanks!

[mascotarulez]

benn harradine 2nd good man strong people wanna watch out for erik cadee as well

[ScrippsRanchDC]

no fuckin way! i was there that day. you can see me in the background behind jarred rome at 1:19 in the black shirt. thats so sick...

[tylerneihoff]

Im sorry but our Americans should try shot put or something xD there surely no john powell or mac wilkins, GO KANTER!

[blackskull216]

nice video, do you know when they will have another world class discus meeting at Chula Vista?

[bbforumsjx]

i feel like a great thrower just because i have the same shoes as kanter, it' as if im wearing his shoes when i throw, cool thought.

[lianjuin]

The song is "Turn On Switch Off" by Static

- thanks shazam

[Hiiteck68]

Anybody know the Name of this beautiful song ?

It's amazing how it's peaceful to throw !

[ssassasinx80]

thats awesome..if i knew where the next one was and if it was close by i would attend

[ssassasinx80]

damn was this like a anybody can attend type thing??

[lianjuin]

Yeah, Free they have 2-3 of those every year.

[Raikage100]

it's cool to see how relaxed these guys are and how they all are friends just because they throw. i like how they take a picture together afterwords; you'll never see Usain Bolt and Tyson Gay in a picture after a race i'll guarantee you that

[nhawk750]

What is the background music?

[lianjuin]

not sure actually

[Hiiteck68]

What the music's name ?

[Hiiteck68]

What is the name of the video ?

[Raikage100]

Kanter really is a likable guy

[Riderthrower905]

yeah, its a neat video cause you can really see that the big guys really aren't that much different then everyone else....except they throw further. lol

[TheAlmightyBBB]

really like this video! Like the music too

[Komeedo]

Haha.

Estonians own you all !!!

[Raikage100]

The guy that place 11th, Niklas Arrhenius, holds the U.S. high school record of 234'3". give him 3-4 years and he'll be throwing really far.

[pose716]

yo. theres like 20 people there. lol

[jayess]

Great vid.

[TrackDaddy97]

This is a great video really captures discus throwers.

[genghishan]

sexy music.

[spitzen]

Damn, could anyone have attended that?

[sima141]
