The cat is the undisputed star of this vid. Kidding. Very well done, sir.

Great tip about using different disks for solo drills.

Awesome video....thanks for sharing your knowledge....it's really cool to be able to get some insight, tips and tricks from one of the GOATs

Hi Justin, Ray just told me about your KZfaqs thought I would check them out. Very good, thanks. Randy Harris

Thank you so much! This is fantastic. I just got a board for our family over the holidays and we are addicted. We have seen you in tournament videos! This is so nice of you to do. The tips are amazing. Thank you for sharing. We also love your cat!

So helpful! Thank you!

Thank you for these! Just got a board at Christmas and my family is hooked.

Another good video Justin, thanks for taking the time to make these. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on solo drills that you feel have helped to improve your play and consistency.

Thanks for the tips.

Great vids!! My son and I have been playing a ton since we got our Tracey board earlier this year. I’d love to see a vid on follow thru 20s (I cannot do it other than luck). Also would like to know your thought process when taking out shots and how to control your shot after you hit the other disc. Keep up the great vids.

You tips are the best

Instructions unclear, still waxing my disc

great video, I would love to see how you get follow through and rebound twenty shots. Specifically how to line them up to have the disk follow to the line you want it to go.

"I would rather stay up all night waxing my disc" That sentence is too semantically similar to you know what lol

This is incredible content, please keep making these!

Pretty good content!

Great video. Thanks ! Yes, a video on ricochets would be cool.

Thanks champ, great tips as usual. I've made my own board but it seems I didn't sand it fine enough before adding the poly and wax. Going to sand it back and start again, going up to at least a wet sand of 1200 grit, then use a satin poly instead of a glossy one. I have carnauba wax for the deck but no wax powder, going to have to change that. :-) Cheers from Australia.

Thanks again. I can see what you mean mechanicswise by offsetting to the strong side. Could the same be achieved by setting your self up from the start slightly off to the left assuming you are a right hand shooter? This would align you for the straight shot, lake the far left extreme shots slightly less so and require slightly more lean off the edge of the chair with the far right shots, although those already have the benefit of being strong side. I know the chair cannot be moved while the game is going, although you can hang off either side but at the tournament level is the position of the chair controlled from the start by the official? Setting up offset from the start or taking the open 20 shot from slightly further to the right if you are sitting centered I 100% agree about the need to be consistent. In billiards it all starts with a consistent position/bridge/stroke and crokinole should be no different.

Hi Justin, all excellent suggestions and observations. I always practice my open 20s with all of my disks, but I will mix it up with other shots once I get the technique down that I want to stick with for a while. Question - I bought some wax that is actual powdered Carnauba wax, not the shuffleboard powder, it seems sticky to me & I'm thinking about just dumping it - is it worth giving a try? As for the shuffleboard powder - what speed would you recommend for a beginner? Thanks for the videos!

I had inconsistent disks aswell. Some had what can only be described as a nipple. I am normally quite keen nipples but not these. Saw no need for the spinning side so i sanded them down flat. And finished with clear spray paint. Now they glide beautifully. On every side. What i am trying to say, ask: Why would you want difirent sided disks anyway? And inconsistend disks for that matter.

Do you have a specific routine that you practice? Because with just your 3 videos my game has took a nice step and I want to get to a competitive level! You videos are really great stuff, thanks a lot! 😊

Hi, great channel, I live in Scotland and have been watching crokinole on and off for two years and the game looks amazing but just very inaccessible over here. Still haven't managed to play a game yet. I think I will need to make my own board this year. In. Your opinion when I make my own board what is the most important aspect of the board to get right for accurate and enjoyable game play? Congratulations on your world championships. Maybe you could go on tour someday

Makes sense. Looking forward to more videos.

I'd like to see how to shoot shots that stop, carry through, reverse after hitting another disc

Can you do a video on how to get better at heavy hangers

Regarding the shot technique, is it all index finger or does the thumb play a part too?

This is like Michael Jordan making a basketball tips channel. Question, what kind of board should someone get who's new to the game? I have been looking at a Tracey or the Crokinole canada boards

I'm interested in buying a board and getting into Crokinole here soon. Is it worth it to go ahead and spend the money and get a Tracey? Do you have experience on any other boards that you may suggest? Thanks for your time

Love these comments

I want to get into crokinole, but need a decent board and some disks and wax.... Here in UK I don't know where they sell this stuff 👀

How is the Colorado board compared to the Tracey board?

I too play the 'nole

Are you able to tell the disc spinny side from the other just by look? I just grabbed my discs and can't tell. Will try spinning them on my board to night because my desk seems too rough to tell a difference.

Is there any brand disc you recommend most? I have a huge amount of mayday discs and they are different thicknesses, finishes and just not high quality.

"stay up all night waxing my disk", definitely no euphemism intended here I assume... Also, +1 for hyper cat

This guy is the Michael Jordan of Crokinole. Respecc.

how much would a beautiful board like that cost?

How do you like your ColoradoCrokinole board?

Your cat is really cute omg

Sometimes I stay up all night waxing my disk 🤣

Yo your KZfaq is the best can I please interview on my KZfaq channel

😮 @2:57 ~ Is that what they call it nowadays… 😳

So Shaq would be horrible at shooting 20s?

Davie504?

Your cat has big ears.

The American Davie504

Way to completely overthink this most simple of games.
