Tom Leitners M.A.C. Slowmotion

mac (M.A.C.) - an abbreviation for "midflight attitude change" or "mid air correction", this term has always been a source of confusion for me because you would think that a deflection of the disc during flight would qualify as a mac, but the term is normally used to describe the technique of striking the disc while throwing. By striking the disc on the top during a forehand throw, the angle of the throw is adjusted and spin is added. By striking the disc tangentially during a throw, spin is added to the throw. I hope a jammer with some insight in the history of this term will contact me with more details.

Note from Gregg Hosfeld on the mac: "My understanding of M.A.C is that it stood for "Midflight Attitude Change" and it was, indeed touching the disc in midflight to adjust the attitude and trajectory. Dan "Stork" Roddick was one of the first practitioners of this delicate move."
