Give these techniques a spin to improve your summer sporting chances
There are more than 100 possible frisbee throws (see YouTube to learn a few more), so a few sessions in the park will not a pro make. These tips, however, will teach old dogs and humans alike a few new tricks.
Master your spins
Bend your wrist, then snap it quickly to give lots of spin. The more spin, the more stable it will be and the more control you’ll have on its flight.
Elbows out
Bend your elbow during your throw to add power and increase accuracy.
Do the twist
When throwing, step towards where you’re aiming, or try moving your weight from your back foot on to your front. Twist your shoulder, hips and legs through to the point of release.
Strong and stable
Stable throws are more accurate throws. Aim to keep the frisbee level and throw from just above your belly button for optimum stability.
