Cutting from the open side towards the break side allows both a simple inital throw and easy continuation, making use of The Undefended Channel

Setup:

A handler, A, starts with the disc in the middle of the width of the field, marked by D1. A cutter, B, starts 3-5m downfield and 3-5m closer to the sideline than A; B is guarded by D2.

Rotation:

D1 > A > D2 > B

  • Brummie says:

    This is all about The Undefended Channel, so don't try to break the mark. Just throw to the open side, and let the cutter's momentum take them to the break side for continuation
