The discgolf powershot is one huge game highlight that draws the most cheers from spectators. The mystery behind this throw lies in the athlete’s mastery of biomechanical movements or the sequencing of their body’s motion from the ground up. Every part of your body should know the exact time it needs to turn, and the energy it needs to pass to the succeeding part until it reaches the hand that spins the disc towards the basket.

Sequencing generates the powershot

The build-up surrounding that single throw defines the amateurs from the professionals. Most sequencing masters do not need a very fast run-up, or a speedy x-step to create the discgolf powershot. Professional discgolf athletes like Corey Ellis, Drew Gibson and James Conrad draw speed by relying on their unique sequencing.

Biomechanical movements or sequencing can be an overwhelming concept to study. But simply put, it is basically organizing your body’s motion.

Biomechanics in sports incorporates a detailed analysis of sports movements in order to minimise the risk of injury and improve sports performance. Sport and exercise biomechanics encompasses the area of science concerned with the analysis of the mechanics of human movement. – Physiopedia
