On Sunday 29th of May 2016 freestyle frisbee players worldwide celebrated their special day – World Gitis Day. For those of you who don’t know, Gitis is one of the most difficult trick catches and has many variations. The goal of the World Gitis Day is to hit this move and catch it on the camera, ideally. Here are some nice shots of players from USA, Israel, Czech Republic, Germany and Italy, doing Gitis. Stylish move, right?
