Hawai'i Ultimate

This is not the most seamless connection. But, it is an interesting introduction to my favorite sport and has scenes of Hawai'i which are particularly intoxicating as I sit here in southern Wisconsin loving the sub-freezing weather. Many video introductions to the sport (especially those sanctioned by the UPA) focus on the sport as an athletic competition. This video seems to approach Ultimate as a fuller cultural form; an approach I appreciate. Enjoy if you have uber-broadband.

ah lovely....that man's house is my dream, by the way.
i think of you every time i see the pitt kids playing ultimate....and when i see them playing i always wish i had at least tried playing back in the day.

it kinda looks awesome, and a lot less nasty than most team sports. like it would even welcome clumsy girls like myself....

It is pretty good, isn't it. The footage is less about exciting athletic events, than it is about the flow of the game.
