if u can thumb it well enough it can work great in a game, but i agree that hammers are far more reliable

I find that using a thumber in a game is like handing the disc to the other team, because it has no benefits when compared to a hammer, although, having said that, every throw has it's situation. Personally I prefer throwing a high-release flick over an overhand or "wristflip" throw. As far as hammers are concerned, I find that a handler with a reliable and accurate hammer and a reciever that can read a hammer could be the difference between a loss and a victory. My 2c.

A hammer can be quite accurate, but it can be unpredictable if you don't know how to read it. They can also get caught by the wind pretty easily. They're awesome when thrown well and very frustrating when they aren't. I typically prefer flicks and backhands.

I do feel like this guy probably knows what he is doing, but I do agree that he doesn't seem like he's an especially good player.

the hammer isn't unpredictable at all. the only way it would be is if you didn't know how to throw it. i think it's one of the most accurate you can throw if you know what you're doing.

i'm also pretty sure that the names for these throws are regional. names vary from place to place.

it prolly is regional. but i still think that this guy has no idea how to play real ultimate and be good, and hammers arent unpredictable as u said.

There are a lot of throws that have different names depending on where you play. My school team calls it a thumber and a catch-toss (as opposed to a wristflip). We call the side arm throw he was referring to a forehand throw or flick. It really just depends on the people who taught you and who you play with.

Its not called a thumber, its called a tomahawk (spelling) and not the wristflip, its the chicken wing. ive been playin ultimate for over 4 yrs, and no one call's it a thumber or wrist flip.

you're wrong...it is called the thumber, and the hammer can also be called the tomohawk...u got it backwards.

im tellin u, its not the thumber, and the hammer and tomohawk are different, u have the disc flipped from a normal hammer and that is what a tomohawk is... it will then rotate over in the opposite direction, and allows it to go the opposite direction as a hammer.
