Tips & Tricks - ULTIMATE EXPLAINED IN PICTURES

-WHAT IS A STACK?
-WHAT IS OUT OF BOUNDS?
-WHAT IS A FOUL ON THE THROWER?
-WHAT IS CLEARING OUT?
-WHAT IS A DOUBLE TEAM?
-WHAT IS LOVE?

On this website , made by Bill Elsinger , you can find a whole bunch of images/photos that explain the different terms used in ultimate.
Call it something like a picture-dictionnary , sure thing is it's really interesting for players who haven't been around this game too long yet and even to others.
I think it's a great idea to explain what for example 'a huck' is with a picture..and the best thing is you get an explanation if you click each picture as well. Super !

A little example :
What is a foul on the thrower?

"When the thrower releases the disc, they have the right to throw without having any part of their body receiving contact from the defender (prior to the release of the disc)......."

And on this great website , Mr. Elsinger even gives his answer to the question : What is Love?

You can click on the first picture in this post to see his answer.

Here's a little part of it :

"Why do people love ultimate? Ah yes. Why do they indeed. For me, much of it has to do with the simple beauty of the movement of the disc, the curves inscribed into the air and the clarity of motion coupled with the joy of ultimate effort unimpeded (mostly) by the clutter of other people's physicality (no contact, indeed). The movements of ultimate are beautiful, whether they be cuts, throw fakes, layouts, skies or pulls."
