News The turbo website is slightly dated. It's been up for a couple years, and I've evolved the theory a great deal since then. I'm going to give it a good rehaul sooner or later (hopefully sooner), but then, I have those sorts of plans for a lot of projects, too. If there's one thing you can be sure about, it's that my active projects all update eventually, one way or the other, sometimes it just takes a good period of time for me to get to a particular one. Turbo is always evolving on the field, but getting what's inside my head to you on the web is another story. The problem is that it's a daunting task. I know my theory works, and I've begun to prove it on the field to a few people, but even if I ran an entire league of pickup-level turbo teams and put all the games on YouTube, everyone would still doubt the theory would work at higher-level games, hence it would have no professional weight as an intrinsic, absolute theory. (Keep in mind here, I'm challenging the entire established body of ultimate frisbee players, and established theories that have been practice for half a century. It's a bit like pitting general relativity against an entire sea of quantum physicists, and indeed, one main method I have in mind is to prove it in theory, side-by-side with real life demonstration.) Just as with scientific theory, Turbo will require theoretical as well as experimental (i.e. on-field) proof. After endless, endless debates and ponderings, I finally understand the theory excellently in my head the abstract (in addition to the instintive feeling it works), but formulating that theory into proofs and documentations is very, very challenging. It's not just the particular proof of the theory, it's also the more general problem of how you would prove ANY such theory. At the least, I hope the methods I eventually come up with to expose and relay a sport theory will be useful for others to use to evaluate and modify established notions. So stick with me, and check back occasionally. You'll eventually see something quite incredible. Chet |
