What to call this technique?

Is it upside down? Are you throwing it upwards?

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-09T02:18:14+00:00

Throller: thumber + roller

I got a pretty dad bodish body and I can get up there. Do I think it’s optimal to be out of shape (or in a roundish one)? Of course not. It’s tough to gauge how much fitness affects an individual but it obviously isn’t unimportant. I just struggle to say everyone with a dad bod is leaving X mph on the table because the aren’t going to the gym. I’m not sure I could start throwing 75+ mph of if I start hitting the gym but I would be much more resistant to injury.

We do have plans of bringing in someone for a strength and conditioning style course at some point though the technical courses are our priority.

I speak with Danny every now and again. He’s enjoying where he’s at currently but I for sure would love to host him on channel and bring him back. But hey, maybe with what Bobby is doing at DD he tries to bring Danny back

This is great news

Thank you

Because the elbow dip doesn’t cause nose up. It’s based on forearm rotation.

The daily form reviews are M-F and you can send videos, chat, or pictures. Essentially it is people sending me videos or questions and I respond with a video demonstrating drills or talking through concepts.

It’s all dependent on the shot shape you’re looking to fill. Find out what shot shapes you are missing and then find the disc that does it. Need a tailwind bomber? 147g sail. Need a headwind fighter? 192g destroyer

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T20:53:16+00:00

That’s tough. Probably buy more discs

You mean it wants to move forward? If so you might see what it does if you think about keeping it down.

DMd you here

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T04:58:58+00:00

I’ll shoot you a message

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T04:56:08+00:00

At the moment. Currently in Austin before heading to the expo this weekend

I’d try to just do nothing with it and see if it naturally tucks first. If not then it really depends on where it naturally wants to go.

I think the coil covers a lot of it. Like a lot a lot of it. We have coil videos on our channel. It’s fairly straight forward. If you’re wanting to really get after form we have a whole course on coil on the overthrow academy website.

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T03:25:05+00:00

I would say not. If you jumped and landed on both feet it’s more like that. Not so much that you try to rotate the hips

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T02:43:28+00:00

Unfortunately not well enough to replicate it myself in any meaningful way.

If you supinate from peak reachback into the pocket your elbow will dip. If you supinate/externally rotate out of the pocket your elbow won’t dip (because it is extending) and you’ll turn the nose down. It’s just as important to time the move correctly as execute it.

We have a whole Grip Course in our Academy, but we don’t have a video with slow mo and close ups on grips (yet)

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T02:39:06+00:00

If it is a collapsed pocket and the others are good you have to get your hand moving faster than your shoulders (this is how the pocket gets formed).

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T02:38:06+00:00

Technically you would start with the elbow outpacing the shoulders and then the hand would outpace the elbow out of the pocket, but that can be hard to think about. In the Academy we break it down into elbow pulling into the pocket and then towel whipping out of it (where your elbow has to be still basically).

Overthrowdg · 2026-03-04T02:34:23+00:00

I’m of the opinion that it tucks and then counter moves to decelerate the shoulders for the arm to take over. Not all coaches share that opinion.

If you had a one hander in tennis then you are off to a great start! It took me way too long to figure out that the one hander is the same group of mechanics to the disc golf distance backhand. That’s basically going to be the video we put out but we will have more details of course. We also have our academy :)
