Customer Reviews

great resource!

I played ultimate in college and was looking to get a team together here in san diego. This book helped refresh my memory on basic rules/strategies and also offered lots of new insight into the finer points of the game. Very easy to understand, lots of helpful photos and diagrams throughout. This guy definitely knows his stuff!

Superb Starter Book!

I recommend this book highly to anyone who wants to learn more about ultimate frisbee. Twenty years ago I was playing this game in a midwestern college, only to return to West Virginia and receive blank stares when I mentioned the term. Now the sport has grown, with West Virginians as well as people from all over the globe playing! This title is evidence of the sport's growing popularity. Studarus starts with the basics of ultimate, including the rules of the game, the spirit of the game, and numerous descriptions of how to throw a disc. He then covers a number of offenses, defenses, and drills to sharpen skills. The book concludes with some historical information regarding prominent ultimate teams and well-known ultimate players. If you're new to ultimate frisbee and want to learn more, this title is the one to get. If you're a seasoned ultimate player and don't have this book in your library, it would be a wise investment as a basic primer.

Good Stuff

I would highly recommend this book. I was a novice and looking for a good book to help familiarize myself with Ultimate, and this book helped me out. I learned individual skills, basic throwing and team skills, plus read some interesting interviews with experienced players.

An Essential Book For Any Ultimate Player

This is the definitive book on the subject of ultimate Frisbee. It is well written and the photos and diagrams make the techniques easy to learn. There is information for both beginning and experienced players and for everyone in between. I recommend it for both individuals and teams to help improve disc skills and strategy. This book also makes a great gift for teachers, because "the spirit of the game" teaches kids about sportsmanship. Teachers will love it because the game is inexpensive, all inclusive, and easy to set up and learn.
