Imagine throwing a disc that zigs this way, then helixes that way. Finally it decides on a path which is gently swooshing towards that basket.. but as you know, anything can happen during 726 feet of flight. A gust this way, a draft that way. Yet on this day, at this tournament, with this disc, for this man, the flight stayed true all the way to it's destiny -as the new world record ace.
When it hit, there was obviously no bounce out, nor a glancing of the chains. No, when this disc hit, it swished around in the bottom of the basket a couple of times just to signal to everyone, that indeed it had made it to where everyone wanted to see it.
A little checking and (if no one
argues..) there is no question that this 726 feet ace, is a new world
record. And perhaps one that will last a very long, long time. (For

State Games Gold Medalist falls off this Diamond X cliff, and walks
away with no injury! (Yeah!) (I have personally peered over this ledge many times in search of a disc that fell over the edge, and when I do, I peer CAREFULLY!) |
