Jammer Mom Has Arrived

During May, an infamous Paganello semifinal video was finally released to the hounds, Claudio Cigna rose to a lifetime best #7 open ranking, and Anne Goh won her second beach tournament in a row. Who could have imagined that all these events would be eclipsed by what may be the freestyle story of the 21st century: the arrival of Jammer Mom.

On May 24, she gave herself a 76th birthday present and stepped onto the beach for her long-anticipated freestyle tournament debut. As she had done many years ago, she carried her son (a young upstart named Paul). She has a lifetime dropless record in competition. She is the most senior freestyler ever listed on the Women’s rankings (at #45). She is…Jammer Mom!

Frisboy Wins University Talent Show!

Share Your Thoughts About The FPA Judging System

Philipp Lenarz, FPA Judging Director, has opened a discussion thread on the FPA site for people to share their feedback on the current FPA judging system and their suggestions for how the system should evolve. Some have had difficulty remembering the URL, so here’s a simplified version:

Feedback on the system is ongoing, though this round of feedback will continue for about a month or so to determine whether the FPA Judging Committee should consider changes for use in 2010. Make sure your ideas are heard by posting your thoughts on the FPA discussion thread.
