We’ve had great coaches and leaders before, but you’re taking things to the next level. I’m sure the old heads and hippies don’t care about this stuff, but a lot of us do. So thank you.

i like the no pointer finger or thumb for throwing idea etc. that is sort of how i was able to create a nose down grip hack for myself. i put the disc in my hand without my thumb and it must sit nose down and be comfy and sturdy without the thumb and making sure when i do put my thumb on the disc that it doesnt actually change anything and when i do that i get effortless nose down throws!

Good stuff. I'll have to try some of those evolutions. You'll find that radar will burn though it's two AAA batteries really fast (like one session). Best to power it off a USB power bank, strapped to the tripod. I too would rather watch discs fly than throw em into a net so I do like that with the radar I can just drag it with me down to the other end of the field and radar everything coming back the other way as well. The app records the speeds in your whole session as well.

Do you think the hips should fire first and then start the pull through or is it better to try to pull at the same time as hips fire? Some people argue that the arm should be completely loose and the hips will pull the arm into the power pocket by itself, but I've found that it causes rounding and not the optimal positioning for the elbow...
@NickKrush.DGandFit

I tend to lean toward what you mentioned at the end of your comment, where the arm needs to get the disc into the pocket ASAP when we brace because the hips are already super coiled up and rotating quickly.

Can you talk more about the finger injury (I couldn’t catch what you said it was called) and the rehab you’re doing? I run into some pretty bad soreness after doing a lot of field work. Lasts for weeks. Especially bad when I wake up in the morning. Doc says it’s an overuse injury. I’d just like to hear what you called it so I can look it up and see if it’s the same as mine.

Sure thing, I have synovitis in the dip joint of my middle finger from power gripping too many throws with excessive middle finger clamping force. I've been doing high-volume finger rolls (also called finger curls) and resistance bance hand expansions daily to enhance blood flow and tissue remodeling in the area.

@brandonstevens1832

@@NickKrush.DGandFit Definitely the pocket for me. I was throwing around 850-1120 rpm with absolutely no power pocket despite throwing 62-68mph. Added the pocket after watching your channel and my spin rate is anywhere from 1250-1480 depending on the speed I throw. I'm almost positive this is the reason as I'm hitting nearly 300 more rpm on the same speed throw. I've also changed my grip and the angle I bend my wrist pre-pull-through and it seems to favor slightly higher rpm (about 30-40 more rpm with an 80 throw sample size for each grip) and I'm not sure why. Could also be the tech disc's margin of error given a smaller sample size> Thanks a ton for the great quality vids

Thank you! The lower body and arm start moving at similar times, but most people seem to benefit from moving the arm first to help ensure a good deep power pocket is reached. You just want to make sure your butt is loaded onto your plant foot before you've started the throw.

Hbloops I was only throwing about 65mph today, and I was getting about 440' out of my 2 mystere, (11,6,-2,2) and about 440' on a hyzer bomb, or 470-500' for full s shape out of my innova shrykes, pharaoh. And then just long tee brid style flights out my Corvettes. Personally if Nick likes the pharaoh the champ and start Corvette will destroy for him. The pharaoh and shrykes get too flippy when they beat in for me, so I totally recommend a Corvette it advertises 6 glide and I 100% believe it. Those things just hyzer bomb like no tomorrow for me and like 5-10 mph slower than Nick, if he likes the ether for distance lines, corvette and boss would be my recommendations ... Golf lines sure take the consistency of a Calvin destroyer or something, but for throwing bombs ... I can genuinely tell the difference between my 11 and 13/14 speeds now. Personally I'm at elevation so near sea level my league mates who have played near sea level all swear I'd be a nuke/boss/destroyer type guy down there. My controllable golf driver here is normally an AGL REDWOOD it's 12/6/-1/2 in a plastic that feels like a cheap mid grade, but it's beating in more like gstar would so fairly durable till you drill a tree

@@nosuitsgiven I don’t want to make any assumptions in either direction and you’ll know best, but I’d keep an eye on how tall your net is and if you are throwing downward. There’s a chance you are throwing on negative launch angles which is causing it to simulate the disc hitting the ground, and I bet you throw on a good launch angle into the field (this is fairly common with the tech disc when throwing into a net) 👍
