@butor20077 If I'm correct Zip Tips was a very informative word document. I'm trying to put out video instruction here. Our main goal is to improve the level of play and grow the sport.

I think what mds38 was trying to say is that the power technically comes from the arm, and that the emphasis on the wrist is technically due to the fact that the momentum generated from the arm "converges" at the wrist. Not to de-emphasize the wrist - it is no doubt the most important aspect of the flick. But it's not the wrist muscles that generate the power - just the use of the wrist joint. Am I right?

The wrist snap is important, but so too is moving your elbow forward. Even when you tried not too, you did snap your elbow back then forward. My thoughts are on my Thinkulti blog.
The elbow is rarely mentioned because we don't notice it. Likewise with holding the disc vertically. Not doing these correctly is the cause of many problems for people throwing forehand.

that motion is all arm... you bend the elbow to bring the hand back and snap the arm to bring the hand forward...

@brodiesmith21 you said you would try your best to use only wrist, but you used a lot of arm. i mean... just watch the video, and it's pretty clear the arm moves. also, sorry i sounded like a douche in my previous comment.

@mds38 I tried to do my best to limit my arm motion to emphasize how important the snap in the wrist is in throwing a flick.
