The Future Jammers competition is designed to bridge the gap between new players and established, elite competitors. The competition will feature a shortened format focusing on intermediate skills, and most entry fees are being waived to encourage participation.

Yendor,
I have a question for you. I have never seen you, but I have heard about you, so I am sure you exist. You may have an answer to my problem.
I was jamming today and came upon a quandry. The jam with Arthur Coddington and Pat Marron was going well. We were passing the disc frequently and setting up a nice flow within the rhythm of the jam. Then Pat threw me a throw with the most unbelievable zzz’s where upon I flipped out!! I lost all sense of connection to the jam and lost all self control. I thought “I must keep these ZZZ’s to myself!! No one else can have these zzz’s!”
A list of all of the moves I could possibly do went through my head all at once. I did a very long combo. When I ran out of the zzz’s I kept brushing and rolling, kicking and rolling. If it were not for running out of grass and field I would have kept going for a lot longer. When I turned around, Arthur was taking a nap and Pat was making a cell phone call.
How can I control my selfish craving to keep all of the zzz’s to myself.
Or am I a lost cause? Am I a bad person?
Your humble jammer,
Dave

Is it ok to claw the frisbee? does it reduce the amount of spin time, or affect preformance?
Clawing using all the fingers to spin the disk, in case you didn’t know.
Do you really have to use fake nails? Is it too hard to delay without using fake nails?
