That's me holding the discHello Fellow Disc Thrower / Catcher person! My name is Jonathon Lunardi. I am the author of all the content you will find here on UltimateFrisbee.com and .net. Before we toss a few words back and forth, here is a quick tour of how you should use this site and things to know.
The Four Symbols
Throughout every chapter, four marks call out the moments that matter most:
You will also see important sayings highlighted like this. If you only remember the highlighted lines, you will still walk away a better player. If you are skimming through the content, definitely pause and soak in these highlighted sayings please!
The Four Levels
Every skill and drill on this site uses the same progression ladder:
Beginner means you are just starting out. Everything is new and many things probably feel uncomfortable.
Intermediate means you can throw and catch reliably. You are starting to understand the game and where you might fit in amongst a group of other players.
Advanced means you are a competitive player working on specific skills. People want you on their team and look for you as a bailout when the stall count is about to lapse.
Legend means ambidextrous play and elite level mastery. Your defender never wants to guard you, your speed and endurance are a super valuable asset, and you probably are coaching others to improve their abilities.
The Videos
When you see a video, watch it, they are usually fairly short. Reading a drill is good. Watching it is better. Doing it is best. Every demonstration shows you exactly what the drill should look like, so you can match it in your own backyard or inside wherever you might be.
