In the long history of flying disc sports, there's never been an athlete quite like Katy. She combines the grace of a gymnast, the facial expressions of Jim Carrey, and the hops of Michael Jordan to create a sport that is at once beautful and comical.
For reference, here's what normal Frisbee®-playing looks like. . .
Now, here are some moves Katy has invented. First the "no-catch roundoff".Next, the "split-leap, kiss-my-own-arm, two-handed grab".
Now, the "self-tail-kicking, afraid-of-the-disc, two-handed grab".
Next, the "straddle-jump, eyes-closed, two-handed snag".
Next, the "where's-the-trampoline Hurkey, two-finger grab".
Next, the "split-leap, jump-three-feet-over-the-disc, smiling non-catch".
Next, the "I'm-glad-I'm-not-a-guy-but-I'm-making-a-face-like-I-am-given-where-this-disc-is-about-to-hit-me-non-catch".
Next, the "tongue-in-cheek, waving-at-my-fans, Flying Flamingo catch".
Next, the "what-does-the-bottom-of-my-shoe-say?, whoops-there's-a-tree move".
Next, the "one-foot-planted, one-foot-flying, straining-face-no-chance-for-a-catch".
Here, Paul's showing off his "look how casual I am reading the newspaper while leaning up against a tree" move, while Erik demonstrates how to catch a flying disc without making faces or pulling one's groin.
For the record, Katy can actually throw a Frisbee®, though it's far less comical.
Where's she going? That's her in the white shirt. . .evidently running to New Jersey.
