Friday Dumps: Muddy Layouts, New Trick Shots, The Pros

by | April 26, 2013, 12:03pm 0

  • Happy Friday, fellow ulti-mates! Everyone knows what April showers bring, right? May flowers! Muddy layouts! Good thing the tournament (Deep Freeze) wasn’t too true to its name, otherwise this layout would go from muddy to malignant in no time flat. (Yes, Deep Freeze was in February, but the video was posted April 21, so just go with it.)
  • Despite a busy professional schedule, Brodie Smith has somehow found time to travel overseas to China to bring you the latest episode of his infamous trick-shot videos! Some of you may have just rolled your eyes after reading that last sentence, some of you may have gotten a little giddy with excitement. Either way, whether you love the guy or loathe him, Brodie’s back.
  • Another exciting week in the AUDL and MLU. More Saturday-Sunday double-headers for four teams in the AUDL (Chicago, Cincinnati  Rochester, Toronto), and the MLU will feature a Sunday showcase game between Portland and Vancouver, which gives the Stags and Nighthawks doubleheaders this weekend. So get ready and excited for an action-packed weekend the same way ESPN does, Top 10’s and featured highlights!
