Series Summary

Frisbees have a long and amusing history. From ancient times, people have used disc shape objects for war and recreation. Today Frisbees are used in a variety of ways, though their military efficacy is dubious. Frisbees are used for sports, simple games of catch, golf-like competitions and even as a beloved toy of man’s best friend. With the increasing popularity of disc golf and Ultimate Frisbee, this ancient pastime is still finding new ways to evolve. Frisbees have landed their way into our hearts. There are a variety of discs and Frisbees available on the market. The commercial history of the Frisbee began in the late 19th century when the Frisbie Pie Company sold many tasty treats to New England Colleges. Once the fanatical hunger was satisfied, college students began tossing the empty pie pans to one another. Thus, the Frisbee was born. In this free freestyle Frisbee video series, freestyle World Champion Todd Brodeur shares beginner, intermediate and advanced Frisbee catches. Brodeur goes through the basics, including two- and one-handed catching. He then introduces many freestyle catches for Frisbee discs that experts have developed within the Frisbee culture, giving tips for the Gitis, flamingo, Oliver, phlaud, bad attitude and more.
