- During its flight the discus is influenced by gravity and the aerodynamic forces of lift, drag and pitching moment. Those forces act on the center of pressure (CP) which does not necessarily coincide with the center of gravity (CG) of the discus and is located somewhere in front of the CG.

Oct 23, 2024 · There were a pair of PhD dissertations in 2003 and 2007, respectively, looking into the biomechanics of a basic throw; a 2008 paper on the biomechanics of sidearm throwing of "flying discs"...
The biomechanics of throwing a flying disc, particularly the Frisbee disc, were comprehensively studied by Hummel and Hubbard (2001) to examine its effect on the resulting flight patterns.
Abstract. Joint angles of the throwing limb were examined from the acceleration phase up until release for the sidearm throwing motion when using a flying disc. 17 individuals (ten skilled, seven unskilled) threw a disc as far as possible ten times.

Jun 20, 2017 · We aimed to assess the relationship between throwing distance and kinematic release parameters of the flying disc in unskilled throwers, and to assess the relationship between kinetic variables acting on flying discs and the change in spin velocity during long forehand throws by skilled and unskilled throwers.

When you throw a disc golf disc, four primary forces act upon it, shaping its flight path and performance: a. Gravity: The downward force that pulls the disc towards the Earth, causing it to lose altitude over the course of its flight.
