all right so newbie times 2 had a question and I think what you're were asking is where should your arm finish after you throw and what I was emphasizing in the video is I was emphasizing just you know over exaggerating after you throw you really want to finish with your arm facing up and your palm facing up a lot of people turn their wrist over turn their arm over and now Blade the disc down so once you get comfortable you can you know after you throw you can bring your arm over that's fine but once you get comfortable with it and also I think what you're talking about is kind of release Point okay if I'm throwing a flick above my shoulder or shoulder level once I throw it my arm is now finishing here okay kind of flat with the ground parallel with the ground if I throw a flick kind of around my hip level my arm is going to obviously come down and that's going to be a 45° angle pointing at the ground so depending on where your release point is is really kind of going to affect the angle of your arm prar to the ground and I think hopefully that answered your question
