What does your everyday disc golf routine look like?

I play about two rounds a week, with some practice before rounds. I also do putting sessions in my garden. In winter I usually go out on a casual round with friends on weekends.

 

Tell us about your favorite Kastaplast disc

K1 Reko is my number one Kastaplast disc, mainly for bullseye shots. Second would be K1 Kaxe for its multipurpose use. Third, Grym X for looong shots!

 

What is your best disc golf memory?

The first time European Open was held in Finland, all the big names were there, both European and American. On the final hole in my practice round, Ken Climo himself watched me throwing, and I couldn’t handle the pressure so the disc ended up in the water. Despite that incident I had such a great time!

 

Name one of your odd talents, or, what you like to do when not throwing plastic

I like to put a lot of time on our course, weekly maintenance and planning for future improvements. In winter I put on my skates and play ice hockey.
