  • Brodie, i've got a pretty decent huck and use it alot. It usually leads to a stright up mark being put on.Is there any way to escape the straight up mark?

  • @jmerz09 This is where you really burn them on the breakside. Go to a vertical offense and move your dump further behind you then normal and you should have a lane to break the mark ever time.

  • I understand its a demonstration, but why the travel? Wouldn't it be best to practice not traveling as you huck?, even in a none game scenario?

  • @gviewchase there isn't a travel

  • in cross cpuntry (middle school level) we play ultimate frisbee every wednesday.any tips on catching it low

  • Thank you so much for all of the tutorials. They are helping my throws a ton.

  • BRING Clean Cut Brodie BACK

  • @nick2hair hit him in the face and call disk space.

  • I'm not an expert, or even a rokie in this; but it seems to me that when you say that you shift all your weith from your back foot to your front foot it isn't a big help.

    In the slow motion trow, you use your front foot to stop that fast motion from your shoulders and hips and transfer that energy to your arm; and that makes the flick more powerful, because its made during a higher speed motion.

    So it seems to me that that front foot acts more like a energy shifter from your body to your arm...

  • you forgot to add ur a bamf and can throw it farther...

  • Do all of these tips apply to the heavier disc golf frisbee?

  • Brodie, i've been messing with angles and arm swings for my best huck, but ive noticed whenever i have a good mark on me, i usually end up hitting him in the face with my hand/arm. any suggestions?

  • Brodie, how did you get that UF font for Bro Tips at the beginning?

  • wzup bro?! wzup?! you got a problem, bro?!

  • Is it okay not to use studs when playing?

  • mmkay :)

  • Whenever I try to huck a disc, it always ends up floating upwards and dropping or coming back. I used to tilt the disc up when I threw, but even now after I've flattened my hand out when throwing, it does the same thing. How can I get more distance on a throw when it appears that I'm not really doing anything wrong?

  • Can I do this with a biscuit? Try to throw a biscuit like a frisbee :D

  • You're not traveling, but without slow motion you'd look a lot like you were. Any way to keep your pivot foot in place? or do you have to move it right after release to get enough power behind the throw?

  • @Supsup516 You invert between left and right. Notice that you also will need to mirror your stance as if you were switching your batting stance.

  • This is the first time ive seen a video with 20k+ views without 1 dislike

  • What if im left handed? :(

  • such a rip

  • @brodiesmith21 nope
