英文原版对话1000个:654 Ultimate Frisbee Part 2

Todd: Now have you actually ever played in an organized league, like an Ultimate Frisbee¹ league?

Wendi: Yeah, I organize leagues.

Todd: Oh, you do?

Wendi: Yeah, I organize leagues and I represent Canada at World’s and played against the Japanese teams and stuff like that, so.

Todd: Wow! You’ve played internationally?

Wendi: Yeah. Yeah.

Todd: That’s impressive. Didn’t know that about you?

Wendi: Yeah, one time only.

Todd: You’re a world class athlete.

Wendi: One time only.

Todd: Still.

Wendi: Yeah.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wendi: No, but it was really, actually, it was a meltdown tournament of us, so it was the Ultimates in Hawaii actually, maybe four years ago, and it was a really bad kind of tournament for my team, and the team I played on was Vancouver Prime, a women’s team out of Vancouver which is kind of known as the strongest, well was known as the strongest women’s team in Canada and kind of top four in North America.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wendi: And the team’s done now. They’ve kind of grown into a new team in the city but Canada Ultimate is very strong, Canada and America Ultimate players, kind of more, kind of the Northwest region, very strong players, and yeah, it was really fun.

Todd: Well, I’d like to play sometime.

Wendi: Yeah, it’s a lot of fun.

Todd: So where’s your Frisbee?

Wendi: Right there. (Pointing to the wall). That’s actually, the one on top is a Frisbee golf Frisbee, which is different from an Ultimate Frisbee. The bigger one is the one that you use when you play Ulitmate Frisbee. It’s 175 grams and the Frisbee golf disk is similar to playing ball golf. You’ve got drivers and putters and everything else and those golf disks are smaller and the rims² are different so they have weights. They fly differently; you release them differently. They take different angles, all kinds of stuff, so it’s really technical and incredibly dorky. It’s great.
