cool stuffs! yeah, i play frisbee quite often here in oz. definitely when at beaches or sometimes when warming down after a game of football.

back then even played 'penalty frisbee' once out of wackiness. like football penalty, but with frisbee 

Yeah there's an actual sport now. It's basically a team sport with 7 people on each side. The frisbee cannot be drop on the floor, as there will be a turnover if it drops. Your team scores when one of your members catches the disc in the endzone. You can run with the disc when it is in your hands.

anyone know where I can get the disk?..
coz I lost mine...

A few things to add:

1) While Ultimate will not be appearing in the Olympics anytime soon, Ultimate is part of the World Games which is also held every 4 years.

2) The Singapore Ultimate Open is the largest tournament in the Asian circuit but it would be debatable if it is the best tournament around. For those who are new, there is typically at least one major tournament every month in Asia. For example: February=Bangkok; June=Shanghai; September=Singapore; December=Vietnam. 

3) Ultimate has been played in Malaysia definitely longer than 5 years. The sport has, however, experienced its biggest growth during these last 5 years. Publicity may seem little, but several articles have appeared in the Star newspapers and has even appeared on TV on NTV7's Breakfast show and also 8TV.

I would definitely recommend/encourage anybody here to come out and give a try. This is the best part of Ultimate - it is an easy sport to learn and all the players are very open. It is a team sport but anybody can just show up and "join the team" so don't worry about not having team right now, just come out!

uhuk: Yes, we did play today. And we will be playing next Saturday.... and the next Saturday.... and the next..... you get the picture.

Personally, I prefer Discrafts.

Hi Sean: I've been using a different nick here. Decided to register again with "klsmurf" to reply to this topic.

Story behind "klsmurf": I first started playing Ultimate at Loughborough University when they were then known as the Lufbra Smurfs (they are now called Purple Haze or just "Haze"). The Smurfs disbanded in 1996 so you can guess how long I've been playing
