I think it's not all the same, but every competent brand puts out great, quality discs but certain brands are more consistent and there's less "duds"/not very good molds, as things are now, of course they try to improve to perfection. I love graphics of Westside Discs (partly because of the Finnish folklore - Kalevala theme) and they truly have some great discs. Still looks aren't THAT important and i prefer some other discs (for a certain slot) from other discs companies with a design that's possibly not so attractive in comparison. It's nice to have variety of plastics, colors, brands and their style/design and it also comes down to money for me, what's available. I now buy mostly used discs in good/great condition, occasionally new one if it's something that i really need/want.
This video feels very real and authentic. I appreciate you're not trying to be anything you are not. Awesome shots so much work in all of it too I am sure. I am certainly a Sci Man Fan 😜 Cheers
Great Video showing fantastic Discskills and Discknowledge! Some Frisbeedia?! @ 2:10 The Freestyle Jamily call this move a "Scarecrow". Well done mate!
Holy crap, that RV shot was just a couple miles from my house! Wish I would have ran into you guys while your were in town! Love all these shots tho! Skills on skills on skills.
You certainly deserve to be proud! Your admission of all the hard work it took to accomplish these tricks is a testament to your level of commitment to excellence with all things disc golf : )
I love your attitude, your kindness and welcoming to disc golf. Im currently working on my skill to maybe one day get the honor to play on the same field as you! Keep doing what you're doing brother!
To believe you chained out of the RV shot 5+ times before it finally stuck is insane! Glad you guys had the dedication to continue that shot! My favorite by far!
My jaw dropped the first time I watched the bass drop shot. Probably the moment I really became a big Simon fan. I'm glad this was one of his favorites and impressed that he worked at it for 3 days.
I love Hazy!!! I'm there regularly! The course is Arthur O Fisher. The course is incomplete now. They moved the fairgrounds to the park!!! It was one of my favorite courses!!!
I loved these explanations to your legendary trick shots. I would say the episodes can't really get much more interesting but I know that you have the habit of surprising us. Have a good year! I hope we get to film you this year.
Yeah I agree that disk maker does not matter. I have several and just try to find something that suits me. It does not matter who makes them! Nice to hear the backstory of these shots! Real fun!
Just seeing this now. Great video and great content in general. Honestly the outtakes of the speed gun one are more impressive to me than the actual successful one. To be that consistent and off by 1 so many times is wild
Dude, you make disc golf even more fun than it is out on the course! My favorite shot of yours is at La Mirada tournament 2-3 years ago: A ridiculous line that no one but you would have seen, let alone tried; through a gap in the bushes to the right of the tee, over the road on a crazy sky anhyzer, playing plinko through the trees an onto the fairway for a long put. I must have rewound that one a dozen times. LOVE IT, MAN!
For the bass drop shot if it was the course really close to Hazy Shade then that is Belmont park, I pretty cool place for disc golf. Also pretty new to disc golf and a big fan of yours. I am from Dayton Ohio so it is really cool to see you lived there briefly during a time I was there!
You're missing one. The one where you throw two discs, simultaneously, through two basketball hoops as you're jumping through the air. Using your left and right hand. That one.
Simon, these were all amazing, but the skate park is #2 for me & #1 was definitely the Motor Home shot! Glad you didn't give up on the shot 😎 Can't wait for 2020 season to begin to see you step up to the Tee Pad once again 💖 The De Jong Family
I remember seeing you in Dayton at one of the courses think it was `15. You were trying the hyzer and strait shot at the same time on 180' hole with josh barnhill filming. It was the week after you won your first major.
Alighty Simon you have covered almost all of it when it comes to badass trick shots even in somewhat of an official round like when you threw that crazy roller angle 200ft in the sky flexi parking a basket around 400ft away and 100% in flight. But theres an area that you haven't covered or mastered or if you have already I would love to see it, and that's TRICK ROLLERS and more specifically TRICK THROWLERS! I wanna see some INSANE THROWLERS and other ROLLERS of all types. But mainly I wanna see some BIG TIME THROWLERS that touchdown at around 400ft and then roll another 450ft or further, while parking a 850ft-1000ft or more hole! BLOW MY FREAKING MIND PLEASE!!!🤣🤣🤣
If you ever happen to be back in WV or just driving through and want a good course, go to Valley Park in Hurricane. It has a 4.5 rating on UDisc and is by far my favorite course I've ever played! (There's also a store in the park where you can buy discs, in case anyone that's thinking of going needs any)
I belive in hundreds and hundreds of tries, I am living my life as a juggler for like 14 years now ;P Gotta say, my favourite by far is the first one. Just the concept alone is great, but with flawless execution... oh my, I can watch in on loop for like... couple of minutes probly... but it's a short video ! :D
I remember the Shots with the Innova Hero Supersonic 215 when that came out in late 2016 or early 2017. You were still on Innova sort of with the Discmania sponsorship in the sense you could use Innova and Discmania discs, not that you really did but Eagle did with 2-3 discs at the time from Innova lineup. Not sure how that works now but Huk lab is still provining the Max for Eagle as Discmania has yet to have a company make a disc for him that is that OS.
I live near Dayton, would love to be able to throw a round with you, surprised I never caught you out at any of the local courses around 2015 was when disc golf was my life lmao
amazing video. I just started playing Discgolf and man am i enjoying it but everyone tells me im to old to find a new hobby ( im 39). Now to my question. What part needs the most practice in the beginning is it putting or make distance throws?
"back when Eagle was still my fan" I would love to hear more about this. My mind is running crazy making up all kinds of stories about what this means etc
Eagle was 15 or 16 when Simon started touring. He was a good local pro at that point, but probably still saw the top guys as larger than life superstars, rather than colleagues and friends
When Simon said "back when Eagle was still my fan"... he probably meant; back when Eagle was much younger, still had a bunch to learn, and had not built up the Resume he now has. I doubt very much there was some sort of nefarious falling out between them.... although I'm just speculating.
I think your ice skip ace is right up there.
That last shot was epic
"Its all the same. We're a small sport, trying to grow...."
Funny, intelligent, genuine, entertaining; all around a true professional & great ambassador for the sport.
A true ambassador of the brand: "Guys, it's all the same" 😂
He’s just being real. Plastic tribalism is goofy.

Thank you for telling us how many tries each one approximately took 😊 It makes you seem more human.
Simon's still not human. Only a machine could be so persistent.
This makes me wonder what crazy trick shots never quite worked out. Thanks for putting in the extra time to make so many great moments, Simon!
Wow i can't believe you lived in Dayton. I love hazy shade. It smells amazing there haha
Funny, intelligent, genuine, entertaining; all around true professional & great ambassador for the sport.
Only one missing for me is the one in the desert where Simon throws the Condor, hops in a convertible, races after it and catches it out of the air.
Where is the video for this one?
@@timothyoreilly6014 it's on TH-cam the 'Epic Trickshots with Simon Lizotte' by Discmania
Seen all these shots before, and they still are awesome to see over and over again!
This video feels very real and authentic. I appreciate you're not trying to be anything you are not. Awesome shots so much work in all of it too I am sure. I am certainly a Sci Man Fan 😜 Cheers
Great Video showing fantastic Discskills and Discknowledge!
Some Frisbeedia?!

Holy crap, that RV shot was just a couple miles from my house! Wish I would have ran into you guys while your were in town! Love all these shots tho! Skills on skills on skills.
That course in Dayton was Arthur O Fisher park. It's now the fairgrounds. Hazy Shade is awesome and thank you for sharing!
Arthur O is redesigned and open for golfers again
@@mattbutcher1334 I haven't been over there lately. Did they put all 18 back in?
Yes I'm pretty sure it's on Udisc as well
I'd love to see some more new trick shots in the future. The one's you did with Paul and Brodie were fun, but these are truly legendary.
The bass drop shot was definitely epic...By far, my favorite of your trick shots.
The ones at his parents house in Germany when Lizotte was Injured and coming back from it? Yeah those were amazing on his other not used channel.
2:20 anyone who's played catch with a disc golf disc knows that pain of a disc hitting the fingertips.
You certainly deserve to be proud! Your admission of all the hard work it took to accomplish these tricks is a testament to your level of commitment to excellence with all things disc golf : )
I love your attitude, your kindness and welcoming to disc golf. Im currently working on my skill to maybe one day get the honor to play on the same field as you! Keep doing what you're doing brother!

that was one of the coolest things I've ever seen. they were all great ideas, well executed. keep them coming, please.
I loved these explanations to your legendary trick shots. I would say the episodes can't really get much more interesting but I know that you have the habit of surprising us. Have a good year! I hope we get to film you this year.
Too great!! Love be the funny stories. I can totally picture it.
Yeah I agree that disk maker does not matter. I have several and just try to find something that suits me. It does not matter who makes them!
Nice to hear the backstory of these shots! Real fun!

You are too insane Simon you're my favourite disc golfer. Keep it up, hope you win next worlds.
Love the commitment to make amazing things happen in disc golf!
My favorite trick shot I've seen you do was the disc flip drive on champs vs chumps. That trick was insane. 1st take, and a great drive.
WAY too fun to watch those over and over.
Man. I'd love to see all the trick shots that didn't work out lol. They must have been monsters.
Actually...the fact you are an absolutely great guy helped gain you attention as well!
Amazing. Thank you for all of these off season videos!
Super cool, Simon... Thanks for sharing some behind the scene- shots/stuff/stories. Wish you a great 2020 season
I hadn't seen any of these before now. You did a great job of making them look easy. Also, I love your shirt.
Your ability to keep it nonchalant, as if OF COURSE the shot works, is really terrific... you've got some acting chops!
You're missing one. The one where you throw two discs, simultaneously, through two basketball hoops as you're jumping through the air. Using your left and right hand. That one.
Your vids are awesome. Cheers me up every time a new one comes out. Hopeful you continue to post on TH-cam
Simon, these were all amazing, but the skate park is #2 for me & #1 was definitely the Motor Home shot! Glad you didn't give up on the shot 😎 Can't wait for 2020 season to begin to see you step up to the Tee Pad once again

I live like 20 min away from Dayton, Ohio if only I would of found the sport of Disc Golf sooner. Maybe I could of met you.
Feel the same way. What’s your favorite course? Caesar Ford is probably mine.
"Human Highlight Reel" is never an understatement.
I remember seeing you in Dayton at one of the courses think it was `15. You were trying the hyzer and strait shot at the same time on 180' hole with josh barnhill filming. It was the week after you won your first major.
Off season is perfect time to lay down some new ones!
Next up: biggest mistakes of 2020 according to my boss.
"Hey guys, they all work..."
I enjoyed capturing your trick shot from Simon Feasey's trampoline. That was 2015, too!
Alighty Simon you have covered almost all of it when it comes to badass trick shots even in somewhat of an official round like when you threw that crazy roller angle 200ft in the sky flexi parking a basket around 400ft away and 100% in flight.

BLOW MY FREAKING MIND PLEASE!!!🤣🤣🤣
dude, you and paul cranking out the awesome vids, it's almost too much. i said almost though so keep em coming boys! loving the vids
Can’t wait for more tricks shots! Keep on being awesome!

How can you not love this guy . . . does anybody else hear banjos?
I was hoping you would have number 4 here. That's a truly amazing shot
If you are ever back in that area of WV there are some really cool wooded courses you guys need to come check out!
So where is the shirt available?
Taylor Crammer also here for this.
@@warpedoutside also here for this.
Yeah! Gotta have one!

You have been a huge inspiration for me keep up the good work. Your the best❤️. Are you playing any tournaments near Indiana or Cincinnati
Alex Hawkins he is playing Idlewild which is very close to cinci
Ok thanks

You rock Simon!! You’re one of my favorite dg players! I keep hoping I’ll run into you in Boston since I’m up there for college!😂
5:27 whats with the turbo putt????????
You're the best dude. These videos are always entertaining
Eric Oakley, Paige Pierce, Madison Walker and Simon Lizotte all traveling in one motor home? If only your vlog existed when that was happening!
I live near Dayton, would love to be able to throw a round with you, surprised I never caught you out at any of the local courses around 2015 was when disc golf was my life lmao
Live close to dayton too. Been to hazey shade a couple times. Wish I got into this sport earlier I could've possibly saw him too!
I remember Andrew saw him at monroe one day and I was pissed I missed it
Ken Donathan Andrew is the luckiest I swear😂😂😂
Epic shots!! Can't wait for this season
Simon understands it. Great video!
amazing video. I just started playing Discgolf and man am i enjoying it but everyone tells me im to old to find a new hobby ( im 39). Now to my question. What part needs the most practice in the beginning is it putting or make distance throws?
Simon, can you make a video on how high/what release (flat/anny) to throw far? I can't figure it out. Thanks, I love you
I want a Simon Lazuppe shirt. Great video!
Might see you at Idlewild this year. Good luck man.
love the videos. Thanks Simon.
Way to go! Keep em coming 😁🇨🇱
Looking forward towards the new videos this season Good luck this year
Killing it! Great video. Good luck in 2020.
You rock young man.
Awesome video, man. You’re doing it right!
I always say every disc is the disc if it feels good to you and you put the time in with it
dude you’re a legend Simon
That's a nice Winmau board you have there
Loved this!
"back when Eagle was still my fan"
I would love to hear more about this. My mind is running crazy making up all kinds of stories about what this means etc
Eagle has beaten Simon in almost every tournament, so he's just grown out of the fanboy stuff 😅
Eagle was 15 or 16 when Simon started touring. He was a good local pro at that point, but probably still saw the top guys as larger than life superstars, rather than colleagues and friends
Simon - You are Great for disc Golf. What a great personality - Just a big kid - which we all are with this game - SPORT!! #706
Oh sweet! A clip show episode!
I didn't know the skatepark shot was you. I saw that a long time before I started playing disc golf. Pretty crazy.
Keep up the great work.
"...when he was still my fan" haha
When Simon said "back when Eagle was still my fan"... he probably meant; back when Eagle was much younger, still had a bunch to learn, and had not built up the Resume he now has. I doubt very much there was some sort of nefarious falling out between them.... although I'm just speculating.
Love your videos! Keep em coming!
Whoa.. So Eagle and you have parted ways?
Not really I think it is just both are too busy to really support one another.
:(
Sarcasm.
Sarcasm.
Could you do a top 5 failed trick shots? For example if the west Virginia shot didnt work it still would be interesting to have seen you try
This guy is good
Awesome video Simon
If you ever want a disc retriever, I'm your man!!! Thank you Simon
Love it!! Thanks for the content!!
I’m from West Virginia and middle of nowhere describes just about all of WV. How was the rafting?
hey simon, you were right next to a Turbo-Putt in 2015 at 5:35.
LOL Speaking the truth on the speed gun video...not to mention we were supposed to be packing the RV to leave for Memorial THE NEXT DAY!!
The sound of that 84 was crazy.
I love Hazy Shades.
