In the late 90s, my buddy would throw forehand but his thumb would be under the disc. He had the longest drives out of all of us and his accuracy was insane. Never seen anyone else throw like that. And I should mention he would use a midrange disk too.
I love Eric Oakley, he’s one of my favorite players but I don’t know if I consider his forehand mechanics that unique. He has a little hop in it but I can think of a few guys that also do that. His backhand is pretty unorthodox compared to most touring pros these days though.
The athleticism is mind boggling.. What sacrifice these superhumans endure for their craft.. We mere mortals shall never know the glory of standing upon Disc Mountain, to be annionted by the Grand-pooba himself...
I keep both hands on my disc in my backhand reachback. But honorable mentions to Eric Vandenberg for unique hyzer flip and putting styles. To Max Crotts for relying on the chicken wing. To Alec Falzone for his wide-flying wings. To Kevin Gaskins for his crow-hop (and beard). And that's just people I met in NC.
The guy that introduced me to disc golf back in like 2003 did the RHBH drive starting completely backwards so that's what I naturally started doing, gets a nice snap off the fingers with a driver. I've never seen anyone else do it and I never got super serious into disc golf (life is busy). I wonder if anyone else drives like that. Line up your shot direction, turn around, take a few steps to the back of the tee, arm out level in front of you, 2-4 steps backwards with the normal end on the plant foot and arm movement. I was making 150-250' drives consistently at 15 with no experience throwing a disc of any kind.
Josh Anthon could have been on the list. Seppo Paju demostrated that Koling's pterodactyl as a roller in his getting out of trouble video. I saw a video from FPO maybe 3-4 years ago and there was a young woman who had a very unique run-up and forehand form. Just can't remember her name. Hokom's name was spelled wrong, but doesn't matter.
I can throw Right AND left hand backhand and forearm. My left hand forearm is weaker, but my LHBH is just as powerful and same distance as RHBH...which for me is great because my RHFA isn't always accurate. I can also hold the disc in my right hand (disc upside down, palm up), bring my hand into my hip, then as i throw the disc, i rotate my hand clockwise (disc upright, palm down) and flick my wrist to throw the disc (disc is straight out to the side, not inside near me) i use to do this with regular frisbees when i was younger and translated it to disc. I don't have the distance with it, it's just fun to use because it's weird. Didn't see anyone here doing it.
Whenever my family asks me how to throw the disk, I tell them that everyone does it differently. So instead of telling them how to throw, I tell them what happens when you throw backhand vs forehand, and where to aim throws/putts. This video shows why you should never copy someone else's form 100%
Here I thought I was the only one to ever to fold a blowfly gumputt up, and putt with it. Maybe i was the first to do it, not sure, did it about 14 years ago.
@@subspaceanomaly No but if I can't go long on a putt because of water or whatever I will sometimes do it. But one of the problems is nobody thinks it's legal, so expect to have to prove it to somebody on your card lol.
No, it means you’re alive inside. It’s like when you see drunk people walking around all loud and boisterous. You secretly are hoping for them to fall or do something embarrassing.
Probably the cringiest forehand in existence. Why does he pop, lock, and drop it before he throws? Looks like he learned his forehand at the stripclub!!!!!!!
@@wcstrawberryfields8011 Right!! I'm not undermining his talent. It's just that throwing style is ultra unique to be polite. The judgemental part of my flesh goes crazy when I watch this guy throw
There are few people who I have seen throwing it. Just for fun and not in tournaments. He is one of the top two in that from the people I have seen it from. Definitely not a common thing to do. All the people I have seen throwing it have a strong frisbee background either in ultimate or just guys who have had fun with frisbee for 15-20 years or more.
Try watching a game of double disc court. I play with some of the best players in the world and it's incredible how they can manipulate a frisbee to do the most insane things.
@@DjFenixSWE That game is a lot of fun! I am horrible at it, but still fun to play. I know how to throw that frisbee, but only the basic throws and from tactical perspective I am really bad. I don't think and react quick enough.I haven't played it that much. Couple of the guys I sometimes play with are good. They often tune down some of the shots and shot selections when I am on.

I love that Matt Orum always looks ready for whatever ska show is in town that night.
6:29
THE ULI WARM UP HAD ME DEADDDDDD!!!!
Does anyone else do that all the time? I do lol
I thought the first sound effect was an accident then I realized it was the editing and started cracking up
No lie literally had to play that back
I love how it’s a thing to just give this man a hard time, I lost it in on the first smack sound.
I'd pay 100 bucks to get my ass slapped by uli

Was there disc golf in the 90’s?
@@TheSlambert123 short answer - yes. I believe it became more organized as a sport in the 70's.
How the heck can you throw a fore with thumb under the disc 😂
I need to see this lol
@@CheriTheBery I'm picturing a discus style throw
Sarah hokum forehand looks more difficult than throwing normal, Jesus! Ulis warm up incredible!!! 😂
Watch it at 25% speed. It's amazing
It looks awkward af but she really has all the angles and pretty impressive distance too. How I have no clue.
I don't know if it's true, but I heard her throwing style is the result of a horrific car accident she was in.
Paul Ulibarri's forehand warm up at 3:08 is my favorite out of all of these 😆
I was about to be upset if that pterodactyl shot wasn’t in there... and it was. A thing of beauty
It's wild
AKA The Chicken Wing
@@certifiedpet that’s not the chicken wing is it?
@@jadon7696 no it's not a chicken wing it's a backhand grip

But nobody is dummy thicc like Eric Oakley so I think we should also factor that one in there
Andrew Fish weird stretch before putting always cracks me up. You need that one.
Weird slow awkward stretch, then just jams it.
The athleticism is mind boggling..
What sacrifice these superhumans endure for their craft..
We mere mortals shall never know the glory of standing upon Disc Mountain, to be annionted by the Grand-pooba
himself...
Oakley HAS to kill it on the dancefloor with that backhand form man. I unironically love it.
And those pants? Man's built for the club
@@TheTjoconnor right?!!? Love it!
McBeth: lick fingers, wipe on pants, lick fingers, almost lick fingers again, wipe on pants, then throw
I mock him and do that like 12 times before I throw 20 feet and hit a tree.
this comment made my day xDDDDD
I think Mcray uses the driver on that turbo putt to get a little extra hook on it so that he could get around the obstacle in front of him.
Yeah it's hard to get that flight with a putter
I thought I’d see a windmill forehand. Saw a guy on my local course and it was phenomenal.
I think Matt bell should be under unique form. His throws drive me absolutely insane, but I guess if it works for ya.. 🤷♂️
Andrew Presnell before putting just pisses me off for some reason
Jake Lauber’s run-up is UNIQUE. I thought he was about to drop a deuce.
I keep both hands on my disc in my backhand reachback. But honorable mentions to Eric Vandenberg for unique hyzer flip and putting styles. To Max Crotts for relying on the chicken wing. To Alec Falzone for his wide-flying wings. To Kevin Gaskins for his crow-hop (and beard). And that's just people I met in NC.
The Brinster hop!
His putting too
Great video, good pace, enough info, well done :)
Okay I see how you mean Eric Oakley's backhand form is unique, but I really think his sidearm is very textbook
5:29 dude looks ready to hit a grand slam 😂😂
@5:44 seems more like a contact hitter lol
The cameraman is breathing down johns neck on that putt... such commitment Jomez you put the viewer right in the backseat
Goes to show that unique doesn’t equal good. Those turbos were on point tho
This video shouldn’t exist without brad hammock..
That's right, how about Matt Orem's putting style 😎
Or Jesper Lundmark or Josh Anthon

the forehand sound, magic
Was hoping to see Emerson Keith on here with his unique putting style.
No tools please
I had to pause the video because I was laughing so hard an Uli's warmups.
Josh Anthon could have been on the list. Seppo Paju demostrated that Koling's pterodactyl as a roller in his getting out of trouble video.

You're probably thinking of Azie Rogers.
🎵 Eric Oakley’s the only man in town wearing tight pants, he’s wearing tight pants, he’s got his tight pants on. 🎶
Sounds like you got another single in the making.
@@jakehawthorn 🎵 He’s the only man in town throwing flex shots, he’s throwing flex shots, with his tight pants on 🎶
This frisbee game looks fun
I know nothing about disc golf idk why it’s on my recommended but still kinda cool
People hate Brodie till they recover a stroke with a scoober! Regardless of opinion, that flight is beautiful. Its like watching a tomahawk roll.
Excellent. Very insightful. Sarah Hokum. Very unique form with tremendous power generated from the ground up.

I need proof
I love Matty O's throw
This is your best video imo
Could we have a part 2?
The sound effects for Ulibarri...😂😂
Can’t believe matty o’s putt isn’t here lol
Dutch Napier does a turbo jump putt called "the flying Dutchman"
I can't believe he left out the Dutchman!!
why do i keep getting reccomended frisbee golf videos lmao
Some of these are at Cameron park east side in Waco love that coarse well until you get into the woods the flats are fun. Good luck on the beast.

Matty O's backhand is beautifulllllll you can just feel the pop and spin on them thangs

Never clicked so fast! 👍
Not Uli with the SMACK THAT😂😂

We need Hammes robo chopper forehand in this lineup.
The Ulibari warm up.. oh my God
Geoff Bennett....he def needed a spot in this video
But man he sure can rip a side arm though, shit even his putt is weird lol
I never realized how much Matty-o and sepu both throw alike
Seppo?
Love that this is
Josh Anthons back hand run up is worth it’s weight in gold.
Sarah hokum forehand... does it need to be said that it was her forehand? does she even throw a backhand?
That one dude is really dropping like it’s hot for the forehand.
Can anyone tell me what video Jeremy Kolings part is from?
Great video. Did you ask permission to use these clips?
shut up meg
I would have put Jennifer Allen's and GG's backhand drive on the list. I love Johnne Mcray putting
What disc did the guy throw for the flop shot anyone?
the squeaky toy noise is what killed me
U forgot double G and his powerbackhand
throwing firebirds like we throw mako3's
Paul Oman would make a good addition to this video
Nice vid
I really hope Paul Ulibarri watches this
this is probably unhealthy, but when people throw weird, i like when they do bad...
No, it means you’re alive inside. It’s like when you see drunk people walking around all loud and boisterous. You secretly are hoping for them to fall or do something embarrassing.
You're alive inside, T Chambers.
Nah that just means you're a normie. Lol "If someone does something different than me, I hope they fail."
That’s pretty evil to want someone to do bad just because you don’t like how they throw. Pretty fucked up tbh
why is it everytime Jake Lauber setup for a forehand he shanked it....
also Eric Oakley - the time he borrowed Jennifer Allens throw and pants.....
I watch u more than jomez
The forehand sound effects
I like the idea behind this video, and I feel like you did a great job selecting clips, but the cuts were all so abrupt it made it hard to watch.
Just not gonna talk about Josh anton?
In general, that's a good plan
@@dasbuj Dats raciss
Lol… all that extra effort just to launch your disc into a tree 10 feet away is tough.
What about Conrad's 20 foot Happy Gilmore run up?
if i could throw a forehand like lauber i would do that preshot too!
Honestly, rickys backhand always looks weird
What disc does Brodie use for his scoober? Roach? Zone?
He has a specific disc that disccraft made for him. It hasn't been released to the public yet to my knowledge
Roach putter...
@@hunterbancroft290 My scoobers (with putter) always head straight for the ground. Is the special putter lighter or a new mold?

"It certainly looks cool" youre not fooling anyone, that is the cringiest forehand ever. Doesn't help that both examples went first available 🤣
Probably the cringiest forehand in existence. Why does he pop, lock, and drop it before he throws? Looks like he learned his forehand at the stripclub!!!!!!!

how is folding your disc into a ball to putt it legal?

No, Josh Anton is criminal. No pun intended.
What about Jerm's punt putt?
Problem is...Matt Bell's folding of his putter is against the PDGA rules (per the chairman of the rules committee).
Sarah's forearm may look weird but she's super consistent soooo....
Where's the backhand 360s? :P Jk keep up the awesome work
:D ;)
Maybe thats a video alone. Unique putting styles
