This is what new and intermediate players need. A good tutor and critique of their form. I could watch dozens of these and learn from each one. Please do more of these with Tomas. He is an excellent teacher.

"You're flying man." I LOL'd hard at that one Tomas!

I hope these videos become a regular feature. So much information and helps me actually critique my own videos.

OUTSTANDING! Do more of these. Tomas is the man. Jonathan you're pretty lucky to have him teach you! Keep it coming! I learn so much! Thanks again!

Really good video, Tomas knows what he is talkning about. Not that he is old or so, but he has been thinking about this since the mid-1980s.

I enjoy these videos very much. I can take so much away from these tips and reevaluate my form. Thank you for giving us insight into correcting even the subtle issues in form and release.

Incredible! The best in depth look at an athletic movement’ !! “Take the time to watch the whole video, it’s worth it”

This was a great video. One of the few channels i can like before watching.😁 More like this and everything else you are doing. Thanks

Such a good job at breaking down form and articulating what needs to be done to correct it!!

It would definitely be interesting to see more of these. I think Tomas experience makes him good at picking things out that will actually cause problems and explaining how to fix them. I have enjoyed all your videos so far. Keep 'em coming.

A super helpful addition would be a side by side comparison of the person being critiqued, and then Tomas or Johannes from the SAME angle, demonstrating more correct form. But already the video is great. Thank you Jonathan :)

For the woman I noticed that her foot was still up at the apex of her reach back so basically her timing is off between her upper and lower body. That foot should be planted when she is at the apex of her reach back. Other then that her shot look really good with maybe a few minor tweaks.

Loved it! Please do more of these.

Really appreciating this series

Yeah.... Tomas .... You are awesome for doing this!!!

Great video and excellent content! This will help a lot of people to make them better throwers. 👍🏻

Loved it! Going out to the field to work on pulling instead of just rotating my upper body

Great job, very helpful for us new players! Thanks for the great tips on what to pay attention to during one's throw. Practice makes permanent, sometimes perfect.

Keep up the great content, love your tips!

Definitely up my alley as far as content ...Jonathan does very good with the show...Tomas excellent instruction as well....TY guys

I really would like to see more videos with Thomas in the videos from a pro world champion perspective. Jonathan and Johanas are a perfect duo in the videos. fun, learning, improving, relateable. All keep it simple easy to understand and apply. I have several Latitude 64 discs and love them all. Claymore and Diamond are 2 of my favorites. Keep up the content gang!

This was great! Loved it!

Even though you didn't review my form, I feel like I've gained the proper ammount of knowledge for when I'm reviewing myself. Great video!

I LOVED this type of content :)

Great video. You should definitely do more of these!!!

Love the videos! Keep them coming

Tomas is a freaking Legend! very useful breakdowns!

Very usefull informations, as always!😊☺👍 ...thanks again!

Love hearing critiques from The Master!

Thanks Tomas and Jonathan and Latitude 64 for your recent instructional videos ! This video covers some of my own form issues that can limit tee shot distance and affect aiming. I think Tomas is very good at explaining the best form elements to focus on during the run-up and throw. This video and the previous videos of Tomas teaching Jonathan as a beginner have been helpful to me as I continue to improve distance and aiming. Thank you for the tips !

Man, I want to move to Sweden. Very helpful critique. I write down the ONE thing that I should fix on my own form from each critique: keep a clear path for you disc to pull through, pull back level so pull forward is level, hips in line (sideways), etc. I think you should title the next critiques "Fix this ONE thing and you will play better" Merry Christmas fellas.

nice video. learned a lot!

very cool. i hope i'm able to send in a video too for next time!

Excellent vid!

What I'm learning as a beginner is to forget the cross step for a while because it just overcomplicates the throw. Throw from a standstill using weight transfer and reach back until you have it down. You will actually throw farther and not create bad habits you have to fix later.

I found this to be very helpful.

Love the content lately with Jonathon. Been amazing to see a total beginner learn and grow in the game. And this form breakdown with Tomas is perfect. Where do I send my videos lol! Been playing for almost 2 years and I've hit a definite plateau in distance and my game! Please keep up the great work and amazing videos!!!

@@Latitude64 awesome thanks Jonathon! I'll keep an eye out!!!

To pull or not to pull, that is the question. Here in Finland, I think the current thinking on this (according to throwing experts like Jaani Länsiö), is that a good throw does not involve “pulling” the disc, but focuses more on rotational force (led by the non-dominant shoulder commencing the reach-out [not to be confused with reachback] and then brought aggressively forward through weight transfer from back to front leg and a driving of the hips) with all of that energy and force put into the disc and released with a sharp snap. I think if the last guy in the video (the powerful jumper) would engage his hips better and plant his front foot at least 90 degrees from the target instead of pointing straight forward, I’m sure he’d be belting those discs out beyond 500 feet, as long as the timing and fluidity of his mechanics are otherwise in order.

Really good pointers! Wish I could be analyzed.

More of these videos please!

great stuff! thank you!

Would love this opportunity again sometime. I was unable to make it out to a course due to COVID closures. Still I gained valuable insight from watching the analysis. Thank you.

I will doing a recording of my throw after a few more weeks of practice, I'm pretty new

Nice work gentlemen, great critiques: I would have also pointed out that some of those examples the footwork was either really wide or too in line with the back foot: I am also very tall and after shortening my plant foot distance I got a lot more power: I find it also helps to try to keep the disc in a neutral position before the reach back, the less extra movement the better energy is transferred: happy holidays

Active wrist is huge, I think it will help me greatly. Snyggt!

@ventarfield7115

I was really focusing on this last week and I shot a -10 with two chain out near aces. Active wrist is huge!

Every single guy has a low elbow problem. This will result in the arm pointing down to the ground at release and wrist will subconsciously aim up to compensate -> nose up release. This costs *at least* 50 feet like he says, probably even 100 feet if you have some power and are throwing a driver. Low elbow will also cause a weaker throw because the further you can get the disc away from your spinning torso, the faster it will go, just how the people on the edge of a merry-go-round go faster compared to those closer to the middle. This is also why you see every top pro with their elbow 90 degrees away from their torso (the angle: right elbow -> right shoulder -> torso) at all times.

So I come from a baseball background and when batting you keep the elbow close for speed. I should work on putting my elbow straight out from my body to form a right angle in my armpit? That honestly makes a lot of sense because I don’t feel comfortable throwing with it close but I wasn’t aware that it’s proper to throw with it out

@Postermaestro

@@crossconnector baseball arm position is a bit different because you are obviously holding a bat with two hands, but the idea is the same. You use your lower body -> torso to power your arms that power the bat. You don't keep the tip of the bat close to your body during the hit, it swings out so that it has maximum speed at the point of contact with the ball. If anything, think of your lower arm more like the bat. You're not pulling the disc straight past your chest with your arm, but you are rotating your hips -> torso (while maintaining roughly 90˚ right elbow -> right shoulder -> left shoulder as well as right elbow -> right shoulder -> torso) -> that power the lower arm swinging out and releasing. So you plant *then* you twitch your hips (compare it to throwing a ball) and this initiates the whole movement. You can watch slowmos of pros and see how the hip twitch combined with planting and stopping their forward momentum causes their left knee to collapse in behind their right. Your lower arm will swing out by itself at some point as you are turning, try it yourself with with a limp lower arm. Adding power by consciously opening the elbow just at the right time is part of the timing aspect. The point of release is with the elbow still in this 90˚ position (both angles that i mentioned) with the lower arm straight away from the torso in line with the upper arm, pointing ~30-40 degrees *left* of the target line. Going through he whole motion, the lower arm will follow the elbow on a straight line until the torso starts rotating which causes the right elbow to go right of the line and the lower arm swings out from the body to full extension of the arm. I also want to add that bracing doesn't make sense until you get this proper movement. By bracing you can push off the ground and accelerate the speed at which the arm rotates around, just like how a batter or golfer pulls the club backwards rather than pushing it forward during the hit

@@crossconnector i rewatched your video and you have by far the best mechanics of the group, just making sure you aim low with your wrist will give you a lot of distance. Elbow needs to be higher (keep in mind that if you are throwing a hyzer it will not be horizontal to the ground, but the 90˚ to your torso stays the same). Also you are letting the right elbow -> right shoulder -> left shoulder angle collapse too much, aka rounding, but those things are probably related. A low elbow makes it so you can't get the disc in front of you (you would hit yourself), so you have to lag behind and start flinging it out too early.

can we please do more form reviews?? I would love to send you mine!

The way Jake Markovitz throws is exactly how I throw and I have been trying to figure out why I have a tendency to throw too high and lose distance. I can’t do an x step because of injuries so just trying to make my static throw as good as I can get it
