My hs team is all relatively new and mostly everyone knows the vert stack but not much else. We are constantly being beat by teams way worse then us because we don’t keep the disc moving and have no other ways to play then the vert stack what are some tips to keep the disc flowing and how to play in a way that isn’t so dependent on the vert stack… hopefully that makes sense.
Ho stack? Hex maybe? Watch some truck stop from last year to see a solid vert offense. They are great at small ball. It takes a lot of skill to play like that though. They have perfect inside breaks
What's the reason for curling around the defender upline instead of blowing straight by them? Is it just assuming they're not going to give you quite that much space?
In my opinion it's to box the defender out and make it difficult for him/her to get in between you and the disc.. Gives the thrower an option to either float it forward like a traditional upline and get some yards or punch a short pass to the body if the defense is too tight..
It might be because you read your defender wrong initially. Like when you're thinking I'm gonna go backfield with a fake up line, but your defender reads that so you do a second move, this scoop as some call it. It could also be easier than just brute forcing it with speed. Why waste that energy and be a harder target for the thrower? Honestly though I don't think I see many scoops like the first example I mentioned. I see it more when the reset chooses to attack one side, turning the defender's hips so his back is to the thrower, then easily changing direction to get open upline on the other side of the defender. Honestly it's a great move.
If they're playing right in front of where you are travelling, you have to curl around them in some way or you'll run into them. And it's generally harder to stop/easier to throw to if you cut inside of them (like Jack shows), at the cost of crowding the thrower/gaining less yards.
Nothin more dangerous in ultimate rn than Jack Williams skipping
Big fan of the banana cut up line
That's a purty-looking thumbnail :)
Thanks man, good stuff!

Huck n pin babyyy
get everyone throwing + catching properly and consistently. Practice dump sets and swings and prioritize shallow space for cuts.
any feedback on the tokay cleats? are they worth the price?
