Makes sense.
That's okay though, cause we practice in our bare feet... ON ROCKS. It builds character, and will power.

Re: Ultimate Tournament
You don't need your hands to catch and throw, you just have to use your mind and some willpower. Its kinda like using the force, and tying your hands behind your back is the best way to release this mental power. The frustration of getting hit with a frisbee a few times usually unleashes it.soobsession wrote:What do you throw/catch with? Your teeth?

Re: Ultimate Tournament
If I was going to Nats I'd make sure everyone was doing what they've said on this thread. Burning coals, no hands, etc.

Re: Ultimate Tournament
LOTS of willpower. Normally, I can only get a good 1500 throws with my mind before I have to resort to using my mind to bend the air to deflect it instead of catching the frisbee with my mind.rocketman1555 wrote:You don't need your hands to catch and throw, you just have to use your mind and some willpower.

Re: Ultimate Tournament
Directed someone to organize and sign up for WI B and C teams as I'll be off to coach National MathCounts. I'll get on her tail if I don't see WI signed up when I get back.
