BEGINNING GAMES
CATCH |
| Catch can be a fun game to play either in pairs or with groups of people. Its also a good warm-up for other games. Practice stalling the SpinJammer on your finger, then toss it to a friend. Then catch it on the fly or try some trick throws and catches. |

SPEEDWAY |
Speedway is a game that develops fast reflexes and hand eye coordination. It is played in pairs and this is what happens: The pairs stand
10-15 yards apart and throw the SpinJammer back and forth as fast as they can. The first
team to throw the disc 25 times is the winner. A variation is to play with a stopwatch and
see which team can complete the most throws in 30 seconds. Still another variation is to
line up two teams of pairs and zigzag the disc down the pairs and see which team wins. |
| HOTCHAMASTALLIT |
This game is a variation of hot potato, and heres how you play: Someone gets the disc spinning on his or her finger and passes it to another player and he or she passes it to someone else and so on. The player that ends up with the disc when it stops, or if a player drops it, he is out. This game should be played standing in a circle and can be played indoors and outdoors, the last person remaining is the winner. |
| THREE FLIES UP |
|
| This game is exciting with a disc. if the
throws float in the air many people will be trying for the disc at the same time. Catching
it in the Whatchamastallit adds to the competition and the fun. (see
500 in intermediate games) Sometimes players may get a little over zealous playing this
game, make sure there aren't too many mid-air collisions for safety. |

| One of the most
enjoyable features of the SpinJammer
is catching and stalling the
disc on your finger. SpinJammer
makes this once almost
impossible manuver easy and fun for everyone. However, there are two basic rules to
follow: The first and most
important rule to remember when catching the SpinJammer in mid air on your finger is that you
must syncronize the motion of your hand with the speed and direction of the disc. The
closer you can achieve the same speed and direction as the disc the easier it is to catch
and stall it. The second rule to remember is once
you have your hand going the right speed and direction locate the Whatchamastallit. Put your finger in it and slow the disc
down gradually. Don't attack it, or maybe it will attack youl |
