Most important words and meanings in Ultimate:<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/a>BLADE<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Also called a “Knife” is a throw that comes down vertically, fast and hard – like a blade<\/strong> (can be thrown deliberately or when a hammer<\/strong><\/span><\/a> failed). A blade is more difficult to catch but can be effective to make a short, fast over-head throw, especially indoors (on smaller fields and without wind).

<\/a>BREAK (SIDE)<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

\"Ultimate<\/span><\/p>\n

The “\"marker\" (\u0e1c\u0e39\u0e49\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e01\u0e1a\")<\/strong><\/span><\/a>” (defense player on a thrower), instead of standing in front of the thrower (in which case a good thrower would still be able to throw on both sides of the field) is rather trying to force<\/strong><\/span><\/a> the thrower to throw the disc to a certain side of the field (left or right), which then is called the “open-side<\/strong><\/span><\/a>” (or “force side<\/strong>“). Consequently the defense player will try to prevent any throw onto the other side, called the “break-side”<\/strong>. If he\/she fails and the thrower can manage to throw the disc onto the break-side, it is called a “break<\/strong>” (breaking the mark).<\/span>
