    Huck like Champ with Grace Conerly | 122

    In the last decade, North Carolina Pleiades and Boston Brute Squad have won the most championships in the College and Club divisions respectively. Grace Conerly has played for both. She tells us what it's like to play for each program - how they're similar, and how they're different.From pouring over film to getting her millionth throw in, Grace leaves no stone unturned during preparation. She thinks about the sport in an extremely nuanced way. Today she teaches us about hucking from a stand still - the reads, the belief, and the execution.We also learn a bit about the PUL where Grace will be playing for NY Gridlock this season.More from Pod Practice:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podpractice_podYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@podpractice_podEmail: show@podpracticepod.comUltimate Mobility Membership: https://www.skool.com/ultimate-mobility/about?ref=1ac6179a76464cf892a7347232df540eBuy Tokay Cleats: https://tokay-ultimate.com/podpracticePod Practice Store: https://ko-fi.com/podpractice/shopGreatest Bags: https://www.greatestbag.com/Use promo code: PODPRACTICE10 for 10% off your Greatest Bag OrderPod Practice BE Ultimate Store: https://shop.beultimate.com/collections/pod-practice-podcastDownload The Playbook: https://betterthanever.beultimate.com/the-playbook-infoShop BE Ultimate: https://beultimate.com/Kikko Socks: https://kikkosocks.com/Use discount code: POD15 for 15% off your next order.00:00 Introduction to Grace Connerly03:00 Grace's Journey in Ultimate Frisbee04:33 The Impact of Pleiades on Development12:07 The Role of Fear of Failure in Motivation14:39 The Importance of Throwing Skills18:00 Analyzing Game Film for Improvement20:38 Understanding Pressure in Game Situations24:04 Hucking Techniques and Strategies27:29 The Art of Catchable Throws32:37 Understanding Hook Throws and Their Execution38:23 Game Mentality: College vs. Club39:57 Insights into the PUL Tryout Process47:14 The Landscape of the PUL and Team Dynamics51:25 Comparing Club Teams and Pro Teams53:08 Growing Interest in Ultimate Frisbee56:52 The Future of Professional Ultimate57:45 Innovative League Formats and Ideas59:33 Exploring Season Tickets and Memberships01:02:18 Game Day Roster Dynamics01:02:58 Integrating PUL Aspects into Club Play01:05:31 Brute's Ambitions and Upcoming Challenges01:09:16 Pleiades' Performance and Future Prospects

    Disc Sense - Luke Perkins, Devin Benson | Ep 119

    Frisbee tech is here. Have you ever wanted to be able get measurable, realtime feedback on your throws? Disc Sense is a lightweight sensor that attaches to a disc to track metrics like spin, angle, velocity, and touch. Luke Perkins and Devin Benson, creators of Disc Sense, join to talk about the tech, its potential, and how tech might impact the sport in the future. Maybe one day we'll be able to publish a Quinn Finer throwing profile, and you can compare the spin and angle of your forehand hucks to his... or you can see how much faster your release is than Kins'... can anyone throw with as much touch as Mikey? Be on the lookout for their Kickstarter. We'll share once it's up and running.https://discsense.net/More from Pod Practice:Buy Tokay Cleats: https://tokay-ultimate.com/podpracticeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/podpractice_podYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@podpractice_podEmail: show@podpracticepod.comUltimate Mobility Membership: https://www.skool.com/ultimate-mobility/about?ref=1ac6179a76464cf892a7347232df540ePod Practice Store: https://ko-fi.com/podpractice/shopGreatest Bags: https://www.greatestbag.com/Use promo code: PODPRACTICE10 for 10% off your Greatest Bag OrderPod Practice BE Ultimate Store: https://shop.beultimate.com/collections/pod-practice-podcastDownload The Playbook: https://betterthanever.beultimate.com/the-playbook-infoShop BE Ultimate: https://beultimate.com/Kikko Socks: https://kikkosocks.com/Use discount code: POD15 for 15% off your next order.

    Elliot Hawkins, AlleyCat, Club Breakout Player of the Year | Ep 117

    At just 19 years of age, Elliot Hawkins was named Club Breakout Player of the Year. He led Bravo in goals and assists as a rookie (12G/15A/2D). This offseason he decided to sign with the Indy AlleyCats where he'll get to play with his 2 older brothers. Indy has made a big splash since Coach/GM Nathan Bussberg took the team over. We brought Elliot on to spill the beans on Indy's new leadership and big signings. We also talk about what it's like to be recruited as a free agent as pro ultimate continues to evolve, the mindset shift between pro and club, what motivates players, weighing the importance of spending time being physically present with your teammates, and, of course, we get a little update on our Birdies as they begin their season with eyes on a championship.More from Pod Practice:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podpractice_podYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@podpractice_podEmail: show@podpracticepod.comUltimate Mobility Membership: https://www.skool.com/ultimate-mobility/about?ref=1ac6179a76464cf892a7347232df540eBuy Tokay Cleats: https://tokay-ultimate.com/podpracticePod Practice Store: https://ko-fi.com/podpractice/shopGreatest Bags: https://www.greatestbag.com/Use promo code: PODPRACTICE10 for 10% off your Greatest Bag OrderPod Practice BE Ultimate Store: https://shop.beultimate.com/collections/pod-practice-podcastDownload The Playbook: https://betterthanever.beultimate.com/the-playbook-infoShop BE Ultimate: https://beultimate.com/Kikko Socks: https://kikkosocks.com/Use discount code: POD15 for 15% off your next order.

    Fury's Flat Side Offense with Shayla "Dozer" Harris | Ep 116

    Today’s episode is all about offense with Fury standout, Dozer (Shayla Harris). Specifically attacking from the flat side of the field. You might also hear team’s call it the “wide side” or “big side.” We talk about why it’s important, how it’s different form the trap side, and Dozer educates us on how Fury attacks that part of the field. We also talk about spacing, challenges, different approaches, and read progressions. Dozer also asks us some questions about the “force back” defense that we’ve been known for in a little bonus segment. It’s a visual episode so we suggest watching it if you can. Let us know if you want more episodes like this. Reach out with questions. We’re looking to offer some services for 2026 and beyond. This episode is presented by Kikko Socks.
