I made this video in early 2005 to demonstrate the backhand lift give and go move (probably the best move I have). Shown are both lefty and righty versions of the move and it's a move I've never seen any other Ultimate player execute with any kind of consistency or competency.
The reason that the video was created was because apart from being a devastating move, I consistently get called for traveling on it (even by 'certified' UPA observers) and by a culture that at the same time has no regard for adhering to the traveling rule themselves.
I sent it to a couple of other observers who of course indicated that the move is not traveling. One particular Official Observer, upon first view, thought that about half the moves were traveling violations but after frame by frame analysis agreed that only a couple of the samples 'might' be traveling.
If a trained UPA observer has to slow the video down to a virtual halt to determine conformance, how the hell is a marker, who is in the heat of the game, concentrating on playing defense and paying attention to the rest of the activity, supposted to also simultaneously be a referree?
Ultimate Frisbee is a complete farce.
