== '''7 Regrab p2''' == === OBJECTIVE - Stay stacked! === A basic understanding of regrabs will get you across the arena faster, but you should quickly realise there’s a lot more to it once actually stacked. A full 8 week course could be made just on regrabs. To save time this lesson will break down arguably the biggest mental shift in your regrabbing: Reading the bounce. Simple to understand but extremely difficult to actually learn and execute. === READ BOUNCES === If you can’t predict the bounce trajectory of the disc in the arena, you will constantly find yourself on the back foot and chasing where the disc is now. Instead you want to know where it will be after the bounce. The bad news is, you’ll only really learn this from many hours spent in the arena. The good news is that it is easy to drill. And once you have a good prediction of the common bounce angles in the area, you’ll find yourself picking that loose disc up significantly faster, rather than chasing from bounce to bounce. === DRILLS === * '''Solo''' - Read The Bounce- In a private arena, randomly throw the disc and chase after it. Paying close attention to the disc and where it is going to bounce. Aim to travel to where the disc will be, not where it is now. * '''Duo''' - Read The Bounce Together - The same as above, but try to maintain the stack as you chase the disc clears * '''Four-Squad''' - Stack Tennis - One pair stays stacked on orange, another stays stacked on blue. Orange pair collect the disc (reading the bounces) and clear into the blue zone. Blue pair then collects the disc (also reading the bounces) and returns the disc into the orange zone. Repeat, repeat, repeat. === EXTRA NOTE === This will be frustrating to learn for two main reasons. Firstly, if you are still learning the fundamentals of regrabbing, you’ll still have your mental capacity spent on just staying together. It will be difficult to also keep your eye on the disc location, speed and direction. Be patient with yourself as this all becomes second nature with practice. Secondly, no matter what level you are at with regrabbing, it takes two to tango. If you realise your regrab partner isn’t as good at reading the bounces as you, then slow down the stack and try to meet their level and pace. TLDR - patience patience patience…
