Favorite Type of Play:
My favorite play is the 3 play deep cut and catch for the goal, especially when my good friends Steve, Taro, James and Jason throw them to me... but any good throw will do.
|
Reason for playing ultimate:
Ultimate has taken my spirit to a special place of calmness and relaxation through extreme conditioning and social bonding. I guess I continue to play to see how much more relaxed and calm I can become.
|
When and where started playing ultimate:
In Santa Barbara on a cold Saturday in September. I remember people laughing at me because I ran so fast all over the place like a chicken with his head cut off. I wasn't relaxed then...
|
Lessons learned playing ultimate:
The most important lesson that comes to mind is that ultimate should be a reflection of life. It isn't as important how you act in situations, but rather how you overcome those adversarial situations that matter. An ultimate game is won or lost based on that.

Personal comment:
