This ain't no Disc Golf or Ultimate Frisbee - this is Freestyle Frisbee!

Recognized as the showcase event of Flying Disc Sports, Pro Disc Freestyle™ combines aspects of gymnastics and dance with the basic game of throw and catch with a frisbee. Teams of 2 or 3 players perform choreographed routines consisting of throws, catches and acrobatic moves with 1 or more discs.

At the bottom of this page you can watch a "freestyle in the media" video or read a newspaper article about a jammer. Or read more about freestyle.
